Description
I use Angular2 QuickStart example and watching for file changes does not seem to work.
### Bug repro steps
1. Follow Angular2 QuickStart
https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/quickstart.html
2. Start server: npm start
Server has started and does not print out any errors, and it show "watching for file changes" message.
### Environment
lite-server: 2.2.2
node: 5.10.1
npm: 3.8.3
Linux homestead 3.19.0-25-generic #26~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 24 21:16:20 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
This works on my local machine, but does not work on Laravel Homestead Linux box.

Research direction
Reproduce the Angular2 QuickStart workflow on a Laravel Homestead Linux box by following the linked QuickStart and running npm start. Compare file-change watching there with a local machine, then verify that edits trigger the expected watch or reload behavior without errors.
