print_formatted_text overwrites prompt, print does not

[GNUGradyn]

I'm trying to write a console using this library. If I just use print() to print data, everything works as expected

from prompt_toolkit import PromptSession
from prompt_toolkit.patch_stdout import patch_stdout
from prompt_toolkit import print_formatted_text
from prompt_toolkit.formatted_text import FormattedText
import asyncio

async def printer():
    while True:
        print("DATA TIME")
        await asyncio.sleep(1)

async def prompter():
    session = PromptSession()
    while True:
        with patch_stdout():
            input = await session.prompt_async('$ ')

async def main():
    printer_task = asyncio.create_task(printer())
    await prompter()
    await printer_task

asyncio.run(main())

But if we do the exact same thing, literally just replacing the print() with a print_formatted_text(), everything falls apart

from prompt_toolkit import PromptSession
from prompt_toolkit.patch_stdout import patch_stdout
from prompt_toolkit import print_formatted_text
from prompt_toolkit.formatted_text import FormattedText
import asyncio

async def printer():
    while True:
        print_formatted_text(FormattedText([('#0000FF', '[I] '),('', "DATA TIME")]))
        await asyncio.sleep(1)

async def prompter():
    session = PromptSession()
    while True:
        with patch_stdout():
            input = await session.prompt_async('$ ')

async def main():
    printer_task = asyncio.create_task(printer())
    await prompter()
    await printer_task

asyncio.run(main())

This is definitely a bug. This is supposed to work. I'll look into it.

Thanks for the update. However, this still appears to be an issue with the latest version on pypi

Any update on this?
