Weird symbols in terminal when loosing focus to fast

[ratatoeskr666]

Current Behavior

When executing an NX command like nx serve <projectName> and leaving the powershell/cmd to fast, weird symbols are being printed out and the execution pauses until I press enter:

It happens since an upgrade to NX 18.2.1 and NodeJS 20 LTS.
Tested on two different windows machines. The application doesn't matter, I have the issue with Angular, NestJS and even with a custom command.

Expected Behavior

The command is being executed even if I loose focus to the powershell/terminal shortly after

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create an empty project with NX 18.2.1
2. Create an application (e.g. angular)
3. Type nx serve <appName> into a powershell/terminal, submit with enter and quickly switch to another window (loose focus)

The issue magically disappeared on both of my windows machines after a couple of days and restarts ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I will close the issue since I can no longer reproduce the bug

[ratatoeskr666]

Aaaaand the issue is back. I have no idea why, nothing changed

Getting a similar output when simply executing nx test on Windows 11 / nx with @nx/anular 18.3.1 and node 20.12.2

>nx test

> nx run myapp:test

> jest

@christianerbsmehl did you find any solution for that?

[christianerbsmehl]

Still happens to me regularly. nx reset fixes it for a while until it appears again.

Closing this as a duplicate of #22358 - we are trying to get a solid fix for this.
