Current behavior:
While running ionic serve or ionic run <platform> -l no file changes trigger a reload or have any effect. (live reload not working). Are there any dependencies I need to make sure are installed myself or any way of outputting any logs on the files that should be being watched or running the watch command on it's own with a verbose output?

Expected behavior:
Live reload should be working and enable updates to html/scss files etc. to be reflected without a rebuild.

Steps to reproduce:
ionic serve or ionic run <platform> -l

N/A

Other information:
Output when starting to run on the browser platform with livereload. It opens a browser on port 8000, I'm not sure if it should be 8100 - either way, neither port seems to update when scss files or html files are changed and saved.
