Scolling breaks after switching back to an agent conversation

[mcgrathd]

Describe the bug

When I open the terminal window, then run docker agent, it brings up a text UI etc. After I ask a question, I can scroll up/down and can use the UI as expected. The problem is that if I open another terminal tab, then return, the previous tab becomes non scrolling, and I loose the ability to see new output, but can see the scrollbar "shrink" as it outputs to the canvas.

How To Reproduce

Detailed steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Start Docker Desktop
2. Click "Terminal" to open up a new terminal
3. Type docker agent
4. Ask a question that generates a page or two of text, such that you can scoll up/down
5. Click the + icon to add a second terminal
6. Click, close or otherwise return to the original docker agent command
7. Scolling is now broken for me at this point

Expectation

I would expect the scrolling to continue to work the way it was prior to changing terminal tabs.

Screenshots

The screenshot shows how there is a second "Windows PowerShell" tab that I had opened. After I had done this, then returned to the original one with the agent running, I lost the ability to scroll or use the mouse to interact with things such as text buttons, as if I have created a second session.

OS and Terminal type

Windows 11, latest updates.

Additional context

There was once that I was able to click the first tab again, and was able to restore the functionality. But after opening another tab and returning again to restest, it broke again. Generally I am not able to do this at all, so I can't know exactly what changed.

Also, I have just tried this for the first time today, and also updated Docker Desktop today, so I don't know if this is broken only in this version or not.

FWIW, I realized that I can test this in vscode, and it works fine there. It works fine if I open a Windows PowerShell and then new tab there, as well. I guess it is just limited to Docker Desktop's terminal?
