husky: Hook works, but then: TypeError: dest.end is not a function

Summary of the bug

My pre-commit hook calls npm test. The test itself succeeds but then husky fails with the following error:

_stream_readable.js:628
    dest.end();
         ^

TypeError: dest.end is not a function
    at Socket.onend (_stream_readable.js:628:10)
    at Object.onceWrapper (events.js:273:13)
    at Socket.emit (events.js:187:15)
    at endReadableNT (_stream_readable.js:1094:12)
    at process._tickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:63:19)
npm ERR! Test failed.  See above for more details.
husky > pre-commit hook failed (add --no-verify to bypass)

My test uses cypress. I am opening the issue here on husky and not on cypress because npm test works fine when called directly, but the pre-commit hook fails.

Fully detalied steps to reproduce the bug

1. mkdir test && cd test
2. git init
3. Create a .gitignore file for node_modules
4. npm init -y
5. npm i --save-dev husky cypress
6. npx cypress open
7. Close cypress
8. Create a file cypress/integration/sample_spec.js with the following content:

describe('My First Test', function() {
  it('Does not do much!', function() {
    expect(true).to.equal(true)
  })
})

1. Delete the other default tests just to make it run much faster: rm -r cypress/integration/examples
2. Go to package.json and change the test script to be "cypress run"
3. npm test - Just to observe that the test command works perfectly
4. Add the following husky config to package.json:

{
  "husky": {
    "hooks": {
      "pre-commit": "npm test"
    }
  }
}

1. git commit -m "Initial commit". The cypress test will run and succeed, but then, right after:

_stream_readable.js:628
    dest.end();
         ^
