Use the previously specified interpreter for a project regardless of environment

Original title: Visual Studio Code doesn't select the correct Python interpreter at launch

[Kubuntu 22.04]

To fix it I have to manually select the first interpreter with the 'star' and 'Recommended' tag from the list, however it appears to be already selected (bottom right 3.10.6 ('.venv':venv)) after launch.

Steps to reproduce:

$ mkdir venvtest
$ cd venvtest
$ python3 -m venv .venv  
$ source .venv/bin/activate
$ pip install numpy
$ touch ptest.py
$ code .
