Firefox needs minimizing after starting (or opening new window) for the auto-hide taskbar to work (on Win10)

As in if not minimized just the once, the taskbar doesn't unhide when I move the cursor all the way to the bottom.

It happened earlier this year, an update fixed it, and it came back some updates ago.

Is there anything to configure in the about:config to alleviate this issue?

Many thanks!!
