urxvt has no response after restart i3 in place

I switched to urxvt recently. But I do notice that when you restart i3 with the urxvt window focused, the text in the window disappear and urxvt has no response no matter what key combinations you try.   Both of pressing mod+shift+r and running "i3-msg restart" get the same problem.

I have to kill the PID to remove the window. Even mod+shift+q doesn't kill the window.

However, restarting while the urxvt window is not focused doesn't trigger this phenomenon.

I am wondering whether i3 lose the hood of the urxvt when it restarts.

Looking forward for replies. Thank you.
