[Bug]: Storybook doesn't work with Yarn 4 (nodeLinker: pnpm), Vue 3, Vite 5, Storybook 8

[phamhongphuc]

Describe the bug

I'm setting up a new front-end repo with Yarn 4 (nodeLinker: pnpm), Vue 3, Vite 5, Storybook 8.
And I encounter the following error type when starting Storybook or build Storybook.

yarn storybook dev -p 6006

20:47:14 [vite] Pre-transform error: Failed to resolve import ".store/@storybook-vue3-virtual-8d5d8463a2/package/dist/entry-preview.mjs" from "../../../virtual:/@storybook/builder-vite/vite-app.js". Does the file exist?

This is most likely unintended because it can break your application at runtime.
If you do want to externalize this module explicitly add it to
`build.rollupOptions.external`

For some reason (optimization and monorepo) I need to use nodeLinker: pnpm.

I also tried nodeLinker: node_modules. But it leads to another error, check my comment: #28567 (comment)

If your running node-modules linker, I suggest trying to delete your .yarn.lock file and the cached directory in node_modules that Storybook seems to generate. Then run a new install. I know you wish to be on pnpm, but let me know if this helps for the other linker.
