It worked for me for like a day, then I got the issue again. In the last year I had this issue 4-5 times, it really annoying.
I would suggest switching to Terminus, as I'm not sure this package is still alive?
This package is no longer maintained. Please uninstall platformio-ide-terminal and install either terminus or x-terminal
Fixed in https://github.com/platformio/platformio-atom-ide-terminal/releases/tag/v2.10.1
Please update platformio-ide-terminal to the latest version.
