Steps to reproduce:
- Create a new 3D URP project
- Make sure "Use new Hierarchy window" is enabled in Preferences > General
- Install Entities package (com.unity.entities)
- In the Hierarchy, right-click > New Sub Scene > Empty Scene and save it
- Select it In Hierarchy and click "Close" on the Sub Scene Component in the Inspector
- Click "Open"
- Uncheck "Auto Load Scene"
- Check again "Auto Load Scene"
- Observe the GameObjects under Editor World
Actual results: Two Sub Scenes are visible under Editor World
Expected results: One Sub Scene is visible under Editor World
Reproducible with versions: 6000.5.0a8, 6000.5.0b10, 6000.6.0a6
Can’t test with versions: 6000.3.16f1, 6000.4.9f1 (different Hierarchy structure)
Tested on (OS): Ubuntu 24.04, macOS 26.4
Notes:
- Closing and reopening Hierarchy or resetting the Layout/entering Play mode - removes the additional Sub Scene
