I'm happy to confirm that this worked with a new install of the Debian application from the Microsoft Store under WSL 1. I've also done some testing with WSL 2, and it turns out that unlike the last time I tried several years ago, Oracle VirtualBox and VMware Workstation/Player work fine as-is when the Windows Virtualization Platform is enabled for WSL 2. So, the only scenario where WSL 1 must be used instead of WSL 2 is when the system doesn't support \[nested\] virtualization, such as virtual desktops, like AWS Workspaces or Citrix.
