Gulp watch not watching?

I run gulp in the cmd line on Windows. When I edit my SCSS files, the gulp watch doesn't fire unless I make the cmd window active. Is this normal behavior?
This is my gulpfile:
// grab our packages
var gulp = require('gulp'),
sass = require('gulp-ruby-sass')
autoprefixer = require('gulp-autoprefixer'),
minifycss = require('gulp-minify-css'),
rename = require('gulp-rename');;
// define the default task and add the watch task to it
gulp.task('default', ['watch']);
gulp.task('build-css', function() {
return sass('src/scss/**/*.scss', {
style: 'expanded'
})
.pipe(gulp.dest('public/css/'))
.pipe(rename({suffix: '.min'}))
.pipe(minifycss())
.pipe(gulp.dest('public/css'));
});
// configure which files to watch and what tasks to use on file changes
gulp.task('watch', function() {
gulp.watch('src/scss/**/*.scss', ['build-css']);
});
gulp gulp-watch
