Distributed Tracing with Artillery and Datadog not working

[70mm1]

I'd like to see a distributed trace with Artillery in Datadog, Artillery is traced with Otel and our load tested services with ddtrace as library. I saw the PR #2325 from @InesNi which was closed. When testing services with Artillery, the trace view in Datadog is broken.
Please advise on how to achieve a unified trace view where the trace is started by the Artillery service. This would also help tremendously with configuring retention filters in Datadog for collecting all Artillery issued spans.

Version info:

2.0.23

Running this command:

standard artillery run with publish-metrics plugin

I expected to see this happen:

Unified distributed trace view, where Artillery is the first span/root span.

Instead, this happened:

Trace View in Datadog is broken as Artillery's trace is seperated from the trace of the actual service.
