MicroPython v1.19.1-337-gbd4e45fd6 on 2022-08-26; ESP module with ESP8266
Type "help()" for more information.
Issue observed with the latest stable (v1.19.1 (2022-06-18) .bin) and also nightly build (v1.19.1-337-gbd4e45fd6 (2022-08-26) .bin).
The problem goes away when board is flashed with v.1.18 or when using Arduino IDE to scan I2C bus. Here's an example after flashing with 1.18:

There is also this garbage text see the image:

- firmware file name: v1.19.1 (2022-06-18) .bin
- version information shown in the REPL: MicroPython v1.19.1 on 2022-06-18; ESP module (1M) with ESP8266
Does anyone know what is going on? I have nothing connected to pin 4 and 5.
