Are you pulling events from the process you've launched? Various reactions to Process level events get triggered by the event getting pulled from the event queue. One of these is updating the "public" state of the process in lldb to the state of the event you've just handled.
So if you just leave events on the event queue, then the "public" state of the process won't get updated and you will see the sort of behavior you are describing. Instead, you should structure your process handling in a little event loop that reads events from the process and then reacts to each change of state recorded in that event. Then everything will be sync'ed up when you go to handle the event.
