Environment

Windows build number: 10.0.18362.175
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): Issue appears starting with commit ab08320dde

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open Windows Terminal
  2. Switch focus to another window

Expected behavior

The cursor stops blinking and turns off, as it did before.

Actual behavior

The cursor continues to blink.

I tested before and after ab08320dde and it seems like the issue started with that commit.
