Nx - how to import from another module when building with the tsc executor?

Question

I have a problem that is similar to the one described in Building library with imports from another library using NX Monorepo.
Using nx monorepo with a node app and a library. The app is built with @nrwl/js:tsc (not webpack as it is by default) and then executed using @nrwl/node:node. This is what the project.json looks like:

    "build": {
      "executor": "@nrwl/js:tsc",
      "outputs": ["{options.outputPath}"],
      "options": {
        "main": "apps/dep/src/main.ts",
        "outputPath": "dist/apps/dep",
        "tsConfig": "apps/dep/tsconfig.app.json"
      }
    },
    "serve": {
      "executor": "@nrwl/node:node",
      "options": {
        "buildTarget": "dep:build"
      }
    },

Importing anything from another library causes a problem with the build due to files not being under rootDir:

import { MyEnum } from '@zorro/types';

This I resolved using the advice from the question above, adding the following settings to tsconfig.app.json:

"compilerOptions": {
    ...
    "incremental": false,
    "paths": { "@zorro/*": ["dist/libs/*"] }
  },

This made tsc work, but when running with node, I get an error:

Error: Cannot find module '@zorro/types'

Can't figure out what needs to be changed in order to properly resolve the path of the library for the compiled main.js file.
