EventEmitter when inherited deeply does not respect parent type

I am having an issue involving class inheritance and EventEmitter in the following scenario:
```
class A extends EventEmitter

class B extends A

const test: B = new B()

events$EventEmitter. This type is incompatible with B
```

Is there a way to avoid this?

From what it looks like, the type of B is class B on the const declaration, but new B() is the type of events$EventEmitter, which is inherited from type A.
