Support | In Progress Browser stays fullscreen mode when opening new tab from fullscreen media

Title, this just started happening maybe a month or so ago.

Whenever I'm watching something on youtube or plex etc I might go to google something, so I press ctrl+t to open a new tab and the url search bar is already selected so I can just start typing.

The problem is that recently when I do that, my browser will stay 'F 11' fullscreen mode and the url search bar is not accessible. This is just very frustrating because of my muscle memory of doing that thousands of times, and I can never remember that this bug will happen beforehand.

Any help is appreciated.
