[BUG] C# Dev kit not working on Surface laptop 7th edition (arm)

[zachsteffens]

Describe the Issue

I am having the following issues when trying to get the C# dev kit installed on a surface laptop.

Failed to listen to project initialization status: Error: Activating the "Microsoft.VisualStudio.ProjectSystem.ProjectInitializationStatusService (0.1)" service failed.
Failed at 'Query for all projects' (719ms) with error: Error: Activating the "Microsoft.VisualStudio.ProjectSystem.Query.Remoting.QueryExecutionService (0.3)" service failed.
IdeBenefitsSource: Failed to fetch entitlements. Error: 'Error: Request to https://api.subscriptions.visualstudio.microsoft.com/Me/Entitlements/IDEBenefits?api-version=2023-03-26&caller=vscode failed with status code: 401 and response ""'

I followed along with the steps to fix covered in this issue #141, but they did not fix my problem.
After removing the extensions, deleting the folders and reinstalling the extensions, I get the following versions listed in the extensions folder

ms-dotnettools.csdevkit-1.15.13-win32-x64
ms-dotnettools.csharp-2.60.26-win32-x64

The same errors persist after re-installation.

Expected Behavior

I uninstalled VSCode and explicitly installed the ARM64 version from here https://code.visualstudio.com/download
and now my OS version is listed as
Windows_NT arm64 10.0.26100

I'm still having issues though.

Checking the dotnet version in the terminal returns
8.0.404

The C# dev kit output shows the following messages.

Using preinstalled .NET runtime at "C:\Program Files\dotnet\dotnet.exe" to load Dev Kit processes.
Found installed dotnet location "C:\Program Files\dotnet\dotnet.exe" to load projects.
