Hitting a breakpoint opens a new instance of the file

I am hitting an issue occurring at the moment on only one file in my project.
When I launch a debug session with a break point on this specific file, the debugger opens a new tab each time the debugger breaks.
Environment data
VS Code version: 1.95.3
Extension version (available under the Extensions sidebar): v2024.12.0
OS and version: Kubuntu 22.04
Python version (& distribution if applicable, e.g. Anaconda): Python 3.10.12
Type of virtual environment used (N/A | venv | virtualenv | conda | ...): venv or none, same issue
Test with pytest and pyfakefs
Expected behaviour
When hitting a breakpoint during debug, the corresponding line in the already opened source file should be highlighted
Actual behaviour
A new tab is opened with the file with breakpoint, then opens a new tab for each debug step.
One more thing I just noticed, this occurs only with usage of pyfakefs pytest plugin...
It could be related that the file system gets mocked and alters the behaviour of the debugger.
