NullReferenceException in ScreenSpaceAmbientOcclusion.AddRenderPasses after building addressables

# Open attached project
# Open Window > Asset Management > Addressables > Groups
# In Addressables Groups windows, click Build > New Build > Default Build Script
*Actual results:* Scene view stops rendering and starts throwing NullReferenceException on each repaint

*Expected results:* No exceptions after build finishes
*Reproducible with versions:* 6000.1.0b1, 6000.1.0b3
*Not reproducible with versions:* 6000.0.33f1, 6000.1.0a10
*Can’t test with versions:*
*Tested on (OS):* MacOS 15.2
*Notes:*
* Exception disappears after restarting the editor or making any changes to the active Universal Renderer Data asset
* While issue happens with ScreenSpaceAmbientOcclusion in this case, original bug repro was happening on a user-made renderer feature

I only get this issue building asset Bundles for WebGL, It does not occur building asset bundles for windows - unity 6000.037f1, not using addressable. hope this is of some help.
