Hot Reload Error "The using directive for 'System' appeared previously as global using"

I’m experiencing an issue with Hot Reload in a WPF application using BlazorWebView. When attempting to use Hot Reload, I get the following errors:

The using directive for 'System' appeared previously as global using

The using directive for 'System' appeared previously as global using

The using directive for 'System' appeared previously as global using

The using directive for 'System' appeared previously as global using

These are auto-generated files from .xaml files.
Deleting bin/obj and restarting Visual Studio does not resolve the problem.
The issue occurs on all developer machines.

I found a related report from Daniel Roth here:
https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/Hot-Reload---Unexpected-error/10743588?sort=active

Is anyone aware of a workaround for this? Has anyone managed to solve it, or is there an update from Microsoft on this issue?

Thanks in advance.
