tns stopped recognizing my device. Cannot find connected devices - nativescript

Question

I am developing an app using
nativescript 5.4.0,
tns-core-modules 5.4.2,
tns-android 5.4.0
In the past days I started receiving an error saying Cannot find connected devices.
Before everything was working fine. I was able to deploy my app on my RedMi 3 device and debug it from the console using tns run android.
I tried a lot of stuff. Reinstalling nativescript and android, reconfiguration of the device (usb debugging is active)...
adb is able to recognize the device, but tns is not. Additionally I am able to build a debug version as well.
I installed and tried on a new machine and continued to having this problem. I even tried with a different device.
Error: Trying to handle SIGINT event. CLI overrides this behavior and does not allow handling SIGINT as this causes issues with Ctrl + C in terminal
