I can't reproduce this.

If zsh changed its terminal to behave like that, no coloured output
would work at all. This smells a lot like broken configuration.

Please provide a minimal example, that triggers the problem (freshly
started terminal, preferably xterm, and freshly started zsh, with only
as much configuration as to trigger the problem). If it is indeed a
problem, that zsh is responsible for, we can talk.
