vscode: Code doesn't attach to node process in Javascript Debug Terminal

VSCode Version: 1.47
OS Version: Windows 10 v1803 (17134.1550)

Steps to Reproduce:

Create a new Javascript Debug Terminal. Using git-bash/mingw as my shell.
Set a breakpoint in code
Run node process, e.g. npm t in debug terminal
Process launches, but sits idle after output similar to the following:

Debugger listening on ws://127.0.0.1:54596/2827d3c1-baf0-499c-9e72-f964b7f76038 For help, see: https://nodejs.org/en/docs/inspector

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes

Additional Info:

Node version v12.14.1
Also tried this on Insiders, using PowerShell instead of git-bash/mingw, saw the same result.
Tried downgrading to 1.46.1, but after the upgrade to 1.47 it was broken on the old version too.
Tried setting "debug.javascript.usePreview" setting to both true and false (relaunch vscode after change). Fails on both.

Thanks for following up! Yes auto attach does cache some stuff per-workspace. New 1.47.2 workspaces should be totally fine. Workspaces opened in 1.47.0-1 may need to you toggle auto attach to disabled (and then back on if you want) to get cleared out.
