Editing a message to insert a new component gives "Interaction failed" message?

Pretty simple thing here.

Within my Discord bot, after a user successfully selects an option from a

StringSelectMenu

StringSelectMenu

that the bot sends to them, in the code I have the bot

.edit()

.edit()

the message that contained the StringSelectMenu in it that the user just chose from.

const firstMessage = await interaction.reply({content:'Blah blah blah choose an option', components:[actionRow]});
const checkUserFilter = i => i.user.id === interaction.user.id;
const choiceSelected = await firstMessage.awaitMessageComponent({ filter: checkUserFilter, time: 60000 });

if (choiceSelected.values[0] == "someOption") {
                    const channelSelect = new ChannelSelectMenuBuilder({ custom_id: 'channelSelect', placeholder: 'Select a channel'});
                    const channelSelectActionRow = new ActionRowBuilder().addComponents(channelSelect);
                    
                    const chooseChannelMsg = await firstMessage.edit({ content: 'Now I am asking you to choose a channel!', components:[channelSelectActionRow]});

const firstMessage = await interaction.reply({content:'Blah blah blah choose an option', components:[actionRow]});
const checkUserFilter = i => i.user.id === interaction.user.id;
const choiceSelected = await firstMessage.awaitMessageComponent({ filter: checkUserFilter, time: 60000 });

if (choiceSelected.values[0] == "someOption") {
                    const channelSelect = new ChannelSelectMenuBuilder({ custom_id: 'channelSelect', placeholder: 'Select a channel'});
                    const channelSelectActionRow = new ActionRowBuilder().addComponents(channelSelect);
                    
                    const chooseChannelMsg = await firstMessage.edit({ content: 'Now I am asking you to choose a channel!', components:[channelSelectActionRow]});

Everything runs fine, and the bot correctly edits the

firstMessage

firstMessage

message and moves on. (It edits

firstMessage

firstMessage

by providing new text and new, separate ChannelSelectMenu.)

But even though everything was correct and the message gets edited, the user still sees the warning "Interaction failed" in the Discord UI. I have no idea why this warning is being thrown, as everything is running successfully and there are not crashes?

How do I ensure "Interaction failed" is not displayed to the user after they select an option from the initial

StringSelectMenu
