Keyboard sometimes unresponsive in PowerShell after invoking heatseeker

Hi,

I'm using heatseeker and after I activate it, some console programs appear not to be able to receive keyboard input, particularly ones that take over the console and one might want to ^C out of. The shell itself is fine, and not all console programs seem affected.

Steps to reproduce.

Open PowerShell
Run echo a | hs and press enter
Run ping -t google.com

Expected outcome:

I should be able to press Control+C for ping to stop pinging.

Actual outcome:

Pressing Control+C does not stop pinging.

Remarks:

ping is not the only program affected by this. I first noticed this when running the hugo server, but I don't think everyone has that installed. The node-js repl is notably not affected, and in fact kind of "resets" the state of the shell. That is to say, I can run echo a | hs, press enter, run node, exit that repl normally, then ping -t google.com and I will be able to ^C out of that as I'd expect. I have no idea if that would be helpful to you for troubleshooting.

System information:
