I have the same error, but in a different context. I can't install storybook-addon-console because of "Accessing non-existent addons channel".

I'm running storybook with ember.

• ember-cli: 3.25.2
• node: 14.16.0
• os: darwin x64

Just add below line to the preview.js import '@storybook/addon-console'

Its work for me😂

Don't put @storybook/addon-actions into addons array, just create preview.js and import it. It's work for me (storybook v6.2.9).

// .storybook/main.js
  addons: [
    '@storybook/addon-links',
    '@storybook/addon-essentials'
  ],

// .storybook/preview.js
import '@storybook/addon-console';

// .storybook/main.js
  addons: [
    '@storybook/addon-links',
    '@storybook/addon-essentials'
  ],

// .storybook/preview.js
import '@storybook/addon-console';

this won't work for newer storybook will it? uses module.export so

import '@storybook/addon-console'; is not valid.
