A linked dep's re-build while dev server is running causes TypeScript to not be able to find the dep anymore

Current behavior
So I have a monorepo using yarn 3.x workspaces and there's a package with webpack that depends on another package which is symlinked through yarn. The problem is that while a webpack dev server is running if I re-build that linked dependency, fork-t-schecker-webpack-plugin is no longer able to find that dependency, even after the linked rebuild has finished and there are definitely files there.
ERROR in src/main/lib/viewer/core/helpers/cameraHelper.ts:2:24
TS2307: Cannot find module '@speckle/viewer' or its corresponding type declarations.
1 | import { Vector3 } from 'three'
> 2 | import { Viewer } from '@speckle/viewer'
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3 | import CameraControls from 'camera-controls'
4 |
5 | // wtf
The error above is being thrown even though @speckle/viewer (a linked package) has already been rebuilt and definitely exists at that point.
Expected behavior
After the linked package finishes rebuilding, fork-ts-checker-webpack-plugin should clear out its cache and re-evaluate whether the previously missing module and its types are still missing. They aren't, so it should pick up on that and stop reporting an error that no longer exists.
