Actual behavior

When using a virtualenv/pipenv environment clicking on "Run Cell" yields the error msg:
Running cells requires Jupyter notebooks to be installed.

(But it works with conda.)

Expected behavior

Cell is executed.

Steps to reproduce:

mkdir hello
cd hello
pipenv --python 3.7
pipenv shell
pipenv install jupyter
which jupyter
# /home/somebody/.local/share/virtualenvs/hello-UXM3mEkX/bin/jupyter
# jupyter notebook also works on its own

Open vscode, select the interpreter for the "hello" pipenv environment, create a file demo.py with the following content:

#%%
print("hello")

Clicking on "Run Cell" yields the error msg:
Running cells requires Jupyter notebooks to be installed.
