Describe the bug
After installing the first version of the Teensyduino Board Manager version for testing the Arduino IDE and Arduino IDE 2, the GUI is showing the address field of the device and not the label.

Right now the GUI is showing things like: Teensy MicroMod on usb:0/140000/0/1/4

As @PaulStoffregen mentioned in the PJRC forum post:
https://forum.pjrc.com/threads/53548-Arduino-CLI-Alpha-Release-Teensy-Support?p=299387&viewfull=1#post299387

According to the Pluggable Discovery Specification

It appears like the GUI is showing the address and not the label.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. I installed the nightly builds of the IDE yesterday
  2. Install the first board manger version of Teensyduino, instructions in:
  3. https://forum.pjrc.com/threads/53548-Arduino-CLI-Alpha-Release-Teensy-Support?p=298914&viewfull=1#post298914
  4. Plug in a teensy example Micromod Teensy
  5. Look at the names shown for the Serial ports

Expected behavior
I am expecting that instead of: Teensy MicroMod on usb:0/140000/0/1/4
It would show something like: Teensy MicroMod on COM118

And from his the discovery tool:

kurte@kurte-XPS-8300:~$ .arduino15/packages/teensy/tools/teensy-discovery/1.56.1/teensy-discovery
LIST
{
"eventType": "list",
"ports": [
{
"address": "usb1/1-1/1-1.4/1-1.4.1",
"label": "/dev/ttyACM0 Everything",
"protocol": "teensy",
"protocolLabel": "Teensy Ports",
"properties": {
"modelID": "0x26",
"name": "Teensy MicroMod"
}
}
]

Here is the specific piece of the Pluggable Discovery spec relevant to this issue.

I thought I would mention, that I noticed one location in the GUI that it does show the label:

But it is interesting it shows it when you drop down the list, but it does not show it in the top selected one instead it shows the address
