Why the nohup-ed background process always is "stopped" ?

I let a script A call script B.
I used
Code:
 nohup a.sh &>/tmp/log &

In script A it calls B directly, without any redirecting or nohup or background.

However A is always "Stopped", while B is running correctly. Anybody knows why?
thanks!

-----Post Update-----

BTW, if I don't use nohup and backgrounding, it's OK. i.e. if I use
Code:
a.sh

directly. Everything is OK. I am totally confused.

NOHUP(1)                                                           User Commands                                                          NOHUP(1)

NAME
nohup - run a command immune to hangups, with output to a non-tty SYNOPSIS
nohup COMMAND [ARG]... nohup OPTION DESCRIPTION
Run COMMAND, ignoring hangup signals. --help display this help and exit --version output version information and exit If standard input is a terminal, redirect it from an unreadable file. If standard output is a terminal, append output to 'nohup.out' if possible, '$HOME/nohup.out' otherwise. If standard error is a terminal, redirect it to standard output. To save output to FILE, use 'nohup COMMAND > FILE'. NOTE: your shell may have its own version of nohup, which usually supersedes the version described here. Please refer to your shell's doc- umentation for details about the options it supports. AUTHOR
