Cannot run Blender: Start w/ executable /snap/bin/blender. Error:

Cannot read property 'data' of undefined

Ubuntu 18.04 with Blender installed via Snap.

I had the same issue. I solved it by downloading the "normal" Linux version from Blender's website (not the Snap version!). After downloading and extracting the archive, you will find the file blender in your newly created folder. When VS Code asks you for the blender executable, navigate to this blender file and it should work fine :)
