konsole and resize

I don't often use the resize command and I'm not 100% this is a TDE issue. I have konsole set to allow programs to resize the terminal. When I do something like: resize -s 25 80 it does resize the terminal, but it also waits for me to hit enter (or something) and then complains: resize: unknown character, exiting This is not the behavior I normally encounter. Normally it resizes the terminal, and clearly sets columns and lines and exports them. I have tried this in both bash and zsh. This is on a box with Ubuntu 15.04 freshly installed (with just zsh and TDE added). Hopefully someone can let me know how to make this behave normally. Thanks in advance. -LTH
