[Bug]: vite image assets imported but causes fetch imported module error

[ahammer-sc]

Describe the bug

When using vites static asset import ( "vite": "^5.2.11",), i get this error when trying to import images with vite static assets.

Failed to fetch dynamically imported module: components/MyModule.tsx

MyModule.tsx looks like this:

import myImage from "/images/myImage.png?url"

export function MyModule() {
   return <img src={myImage} alt="" />;
}

The console has this error:

Failed to load module script: Expected a JavaScript module script but the server responded with a MIME type of "image/png". Strict MIME type checking is enforced for module scripts per HTML spec.

it seems to be trying to load this as a script/module but its actually an image, the browser throws an error and then storybook crashes and cannot import the entire module.

Happens for svgs, images, etc

To Reproduce

Unable to reproduce in stackblitz, but showed example above in the description.
