Description

## Information

**VIM version**

VIM - Vi IMproved 8.2 (2019 Dec 12, compiled Apr 26 2020 17:02:50)
Included patches: 1-647

Operating System: Ubuntu 20.04

## What went wrong

I'm having the same issue that was described [here](https://github.com/dense-analysis/ale/issues/1066). I have `let g:ale_fix_on_save = 1` set, but ALEFix does not automatically run on save unless I close nerdtree. I can reliably reproduce this by toggling nerdtree on and off.

## Reproducing the bug

1. Setup vim + ale + nerdtree. My full vimrc can be found [here](https://github.com/tdickman/dotfiles/blob/master/vim/vimrc)
2. Configure vim to have `ale_fix_on_save` enabled. Fixers won't run as long as nerdtree is open.
3. Close nerdtree. Save file (fixers run).
