After the March update 1.55.0 of VSCode I've experienced a misconfiguration in golang extension

Failed to run '/snap/bin/go env. The config change may not be applied correctly.

Golang is installed locally via snap so I had to change the following paths in vscode settings.json

go env GOPATH
go env GOROOT
  "go.inferGopath": true,
  "go.gopath": "/home/kachar/go",
  "go.goroot": "/snap/go/7221",

After updating the setting go.goroot as the returned from env command and reload of vscode I got:

All tools successfully installed. You are ready to Go :).
