Discovered that the cause was that the "Breakpoint Groups" was set to "Custom Groups", and the "From Current Debug Session" was selected. Note that I had never used the breakpoint groups feature at all, these were the default options after a clean installation.

In fact, all options other than "No Groups" show an empty list of breakpoints if the "From Current Debug Session" option is selected, even though these are breakpoints from the current debug session
