Freezes chromium process(?) on parallel startup with Gauge

[Minnesota94]

When run tests with gauge+taiko in parallel mod, random process (all platforms - mac, win, linux (docker)) freezes.

Start command: gauge run -n=5 --parallel --only parallelStreams --max-retries-count=3.

I don't understand where is the problem, but if open the task manager - I expect to see the number of chromium's processes equal from command (-n=5 or other).
But i see only one chromium process. In console - test stops (need to cancel the command).

Last Gauge log in Docker:

Last taiko log:

I will be grateful for any help/ideas with debagging.

Open/Close browser code:

export default class BeforeSpecs {
  @BeforeSpec({tags: ['headless']})
  async openHeadlessBrowserBeforeSpec(context: ExecutionContext) {
    await openBrowserBeforeSpec(true, context);
  }

  @BeforeSpec({tags: ['headed']})
  async openHeadedBrowserBeforeSpec(context: ExecutionContext) {
    await openBrowserBeforeSpec(false, context);
  }
}

async function openBrowserBeforeSpec(
  isHeadless: boolean,
  context: ExecutionContext,
) {
  await openBrowser({
    headless: isHeadless,
    args: [
      '--disable-gpu',
      '--disable-dev-shm-usage',
      '--disable-setuid-sandbox',
      '--no-first-run',
      '--no-sandbox',
      '--no-zygote',
      '--start-fullscreen',
      '--window-size=1920,1080',
    ],
  });

  if (context.getCurrentSpec()?.getName() !== `Login`) {
    await goto(pageUrl.login);
    await login(
      testCredentials.correct.username,
      testCredentials.correct.password,
    );
    await assertAfterLoginPage();
  }
  await beforeSpecLog(context);
}

Can you please provide more insights on how is the code organised, specifically openBrowser and closeBrowser ? A sample will be really great to understand the scenario.

Sorry for the long answer. Added code example from BeforeSpecs hook for opening and closing the browser.
