Vs code remote container not stopping on breakpoints

Question

I have a setup with both a devcontainer.json and a launch.json with the new Remote Container plugin in vs-code. But I cant get the breakpoints working. I get the app to launch and can browse it, but the breakpoints are not getting hit, am I missing something in my launch.json?

Your configuration has diverged from the default launch.json config for Django and is missing some critical parts (it looks like everything that's missing is important):

    {
        "name": "Python: Django",
        "type": "python",
        "request": "launch",
        "program": "${workspaceFolder}/manage.py",
        "console": "integratedTerminal",
        "args": [
            "runserver",
            "--noreload",
            "--nothreading"
        ],
        "django": true
},
