Mip Map Debugging View turns White if there are Directional Lights in the Scene

How to reproduce:

1. Open any HDRP Project
2. Navigate to Window > Analysis > Rendering Debugger
3. From the menu list choose "Rendering"
4. Have Game View Open with a Directional Light in the Scene
5. In the Dropdown Menu for "Mip Maps" choose any of the Debug View modes
6. Observe Game View

Actual result: Game View is white if the Directional Light is enabled

Expected result: With Lighting Settings not changed by default, Mip Map Debugging View should not include Lights. This is fixed with Unity 6 and new Mip Map Debugging.

Reproducible with: 2021.3.37f1, 2022.3.26f1, 2023.1.20f1, 2023.2.20f

Not reproducible with: 6000.0.0f1 (New Debug Views)

 

Workarounds:

1. Turn Lights off by Type in the Rendering Debugger's Lighting section, user has to do this even though he never turned any settings on
2. Disable Lights in the Scene, or change their type
