This is a PowerShell bug (see issue #6767). I believe it should be fixed if you upgrade PSReadLine. You can get the latest version by following the instructions here: https://github.com/PowerShell/PSReadLine#upgrading

Thanks, @j4james.
I updated PSReadLine from v2.0.2 to v2.0.4, and I do not have the issue anymore.
