[SOLVED] XMonad focused window is wrong after dmenu exits

For example, if I do this:

* Spawn two terminals
* Go to the second terminal and executed command `dmenu <<< "1"`
* Select the option in dmenu

The red box (XMonad focus) is still shown around the second terminal, but whatever content I type goes to the first terminal.

Details: XMonad, "tall" window layout, "first" means leftmost.

As mentioned above, dmenu is spawned from a terminal, not from XMonad. However the same issue happens when I use `mod+p` to launch dmenu from XMonad.

That issue does not happen with `rofi -dmenu`.
