Describe your issue

When creating a new env:

❯ micromamba create -n test python=3.12

❯ l ~/micromamba/envs/test/bin/python3.1
lrwxr-xr-x@ 1 bas.nijholt  staff    10B Jun 10 11:19 /Users/bas.nijholt/micromamba/envs/test/bin/python3.1 -> python3.12

❯ micromamba --version
1.5.8

This results in VS Code being confused, e.g., see:

VS Code uses this alias to figure out which Python version is being used.

This problem occurs on at least MacOS and Ubuntu.
