NodeJS project not showing variables in debugger

On Windows 10.

If I use IntelliJ's installed version of Node (12.13.1), debugging works as expected. If I change the debug configuration "node intepreter" to use the version downloaded from nodejs.org (12.16.1), breakpoints work, but I don't see any variables in the debugger. Any ideas on what's going on?

Reproduced with Express app, when debugging `www` script (in other files, seems to work as expected).

All other Node.js versions I've tried (13.2.0, 13.9.0, 12.13.0) don't show up the issue; works in the same way in VSCode:

So it appears to be a problem with V8 engine in Node.js 12.16.1...

I can confirm this. Switching to Node 13 fixed this issue for me.
