I recently reset my MacBook Air (M1) and reinstalled Xcode, Android Studio, and Flutter. Everything seems to work except for one issue in Android Studio:

Whenever I open a Flutter project (either a new project or one cloned from Git), Android Studio briefly displays the project files during indexing, but then they disappear, leaving only the following:

• External Libraries
• Scratches and Consoles

The project runs correctly when I use the terminal (flutter run), so the issue seems to be limited to the IDE.

Environment Details:

• macOS: macOS 15.2 (M1 chip, darwin-arm64)
• Android Studio: Ladybug | 2024.2.1 Patch 3
• Flutter version: 3.27.0 (stable channel)
• Dart version: 3.6.0

Environment Variables in .zshrc:

export PATH="$HOME/development/flutter/bin:$PATH"  
export PATH="$PATH:/Users/raulpalade/Library/ApplicationSupport/JetBrains/Toolbox/scripts"  

Output from flutter doctor –verbose:

When I keep Android Studio open, this issue repeatedly occurs: the project files briefly appear in the “Project” view during the indexing phase, but once indexing completes, they disappear, leaving only “External Libraries” and “Scratches and Consoles” visible.

Here are some images of the project settings:
