Grey bar flashes at bottom of screen when switching tabs

Hi,

Since my Firefox updated today (v132.0), sometimes when I swap tabs I get this grey bar appear for a split second at the bottom of the tab. This isn't super consistent, and seems to only happen when swapping from the New Tab page to some websites, such as Twitter and my email, but not others. I've tried disabling extensions to no avail.

Any ideas on the cause of this/how to fix?

Thank you very much for reading

Update: Turns out this is caused by swapping from a site that has Show Bookmarks Toolbar enabled to one that doesn't, and can be fixed by changing the Bookmarks Toolbar to always show (before I had it on only show on New Tab).

If anyone knows of a way to fix this while still having Bookmarks Toolbar on Show only on New Tab, please do still let me know!
