Snippet Expansion not working with tsserver

Hey all,

The snippet ecosystem is tightly coupled, so please let me know if you believe I should open this issue elsewhere. Below I provide my two relevant files. I will say that using the kickstarter.nvim and providing tsserver = { capabilities = capabilities } to set enable the completion protocol does not result in any changes from my config. Nor does it result in changes if I using the lspconfig.tsserver.setup syntax. I also followed another individuals configuration to see if it would help me, and although they show snippet expansion for TS, I still do not receive it.

The issue is that while I receive, say, a function name I defined in typescript in my autocomplete, selecting that function does not expand the snippet, it only completes the word.

In lua, defined functions are able to expand into snippets properly.

I would appreciate any guidance. I've been attempting to debug for hours now, and there seems to be little out there in terms of other people experiencing this issue.
