Fullscreen Mode Exits When Clicking on Any Plugin – Waveform Free 13.5.21 (Windows)

I would like to report a bug in Waveform Free 13.5.21 on Windows.
Whenever I open any plugin and click on it (for example, when adjusting any parameter), Waveform automatically exits fullscreen mode. If I manually switch back to fullscreen and click again on any plugin parameter, it exits fullscreen once more.
This behavior is happening with all plugins, not just a specific one. Before this update, this issue did not occur, and fullscreen mode remained active while interacting with plugins.
Heads up about fullscreen mode and Plugin Sandboxing
Just sharing this in case it helps someone:
If you turn on “Enable Plugin Sandboxing” in the Plugins section, Waveform will minimize every time you open a plugin or even click/interact with it while in fullscreen mode.
I thought it was a bug at first, but it seems to be caused by that option being enabled.
Fix: Just disable “Enable Plugin Sandboxing” and fullscreen works normally again.
