What version and on which OS did you test it on?
With that same command and with ksh93u+ on Debian GNU/Linux
amd64, I need to press ^Z twice (if done within the first 4
seconds) to get to the prompt at which point it shows 2 jobs
with the same description and "ps -l" shows suspended sleep
{1,2,3,4} processes.
Same for Version A 2020.0.0-alpha1-334-g12be4da2 on Ubuntu 18.04
amd64.
