Active window color of local session highlights when killing another window

[hisnawi]

I do like the F12 (On/Off) feature that changes the status bar highlights between remote and local tmux sessions.
However I noticed that when local tmux status bar is Off and when killing a ssh remote window, the active window becomes one of the other windows and highlights as if the F12 key is On for local.
This is fixable by toggling the F12 key to On -> Off.
