Not refreshing the browser!

See original GitHub issue

Issue details

I have a markdown file that I change and convert to html using pandoc. browsersync is detecting the file change but does not refresh the browser. I am running it on Linux 4.4.0-57-generic.

Here is how I am running browsersync:

pandoc-markdown-to-html: $ browser-sync start --server './' --files '*.html' --index 'readme.html'
[BS] Access URLs:
 -------------------------------------
       Local: http://localhost:3002
    External: http://192.168.0.10:3002
 -------------------------------------
          UI: http://localhost:3003
 UI External: http://192.168.0.10:3003
 -------------------------------------
[BS] Serving files from: ./
[BS] Watching files...
[BS] File changed: readme.html

Please provide issue details here. Browser files to update, I need to manually refresh the browser to see the changes.
