Windows 11 taskbar is visible when entering fullscreen on a video

Firefox Audio and Video

For some reason after either a recent Firefox update or a Windows 11 update (genuinely don't recall which) anytime I enter the fullscreen of a video the windows taskbar is still visible, covering up the video player controls. If I enter fullscreen for the browser itself though (tapping f11) and then enter fullscreen on the video this doesn't happen. I've tested this on Chrome and Edge and this behavior happens on neither. Thought this was Youtube only but it also happens on Vimeo and Imgur, so I assume it happens on all video players. Firefox version 156.0, Windows 11 25H2 OS build 26200.9457

This damn bug appeared again.

It was resolved in the link above a while ago, but the bug has reappeared

in version 156.

changing the setting for `widget.windows.fullscreen_marking_method` in about:config

0, 1, 2, and 3 are all not working.
