Description

I've tried with many different autocmds but no dice.

It works just fine when changing the buffer via :e bar.c

Minimal config

local root = vim.fn.fnamemodify("./.repro", ":p")

-- set stdpaths to use .repro
for _, name in ipairs({ "config", "data", "state", "cache" }) do
	vim.env[("XDG_%s_HOME"):format(name:upper())] = root .. "/" .. name
end

-- bootstrap lazy
local lazypath = root .. "/plugins/lazy.nvim"
if not vim.uv.fs_stat(lazypath) then
	vim.fn.system({
		"git",
		"clone",
		"--filter=blob:none",
		"https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git",
		lazypath,
	})
end
vim.opt.runtimepath:prepend(lazypath)

-- install plugins
local plugins = {
	{
		"mrcjkb/nvim-lastplace", -- or just autocmd for restoring position
		"nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim",
		dependencies = {
			"nvim-lua/plenary.nvim",
		},
		config = function()
			-- ADD INIT.LUA SETTINGS THAT ARE _NECESSARY_ FOR REPRODUCING THE ISSUE
			require("telescope").setup({})
		end,
	},
}

require("lazy").setup(plugins, {
	root = root .. "/plugins",
})
