vtkOpenGLHardwareSelect error when picking in combination with vtkSSAOPass

I’m getting the following error:
vtkOpenGLHardwareSelect:199 ERR| vtkOpenGLHardwareSelector (0000020C7F641B90): Too many props. Currently only 16777214 props are supported.

when picking a point using vtkPropPicker in a renderer where I’ve added a vtkSSAOPass.

I can reproduce it on my machine with the following python script:
vtk9_sod_saoo.py (1.4 KB)

this is the basic cube example with a few lines added.

OS: Windows 10
vtk: 9.0.0 installation from pypi (via pip)
python 3.7 (64 bit)

I was going to report the same issue and found this thread. Any ideas on why this happens? Thanks!

Do you have the same issue with other render passes?
