Using Masking panel in Full Screen

When using masking tools in Lightroom 6.1 on Mac (Ventura 13.1), going to full screen and back reliably causes the floating Masking panel to remain on the screen when changing to other tools. This also results in a duplicate floating Masking panel to appear if you select masking again.
To replicate:
- start masking in a photo (add a mask, make some changes - it seems that a mask needs to be active and expanded in the floating panel for this bug to occur)
- click F for full-screen
- close full-screen (seems to require both Esc and F to be clicked)
- change to other tool (e.g. Edit tool panel)
Effect:
- Floating masking panel remains on screen
In addition:
- move floating masking panel out of the way
- select Masking tools again (M)
- a second floating masking panel appears
The only way to resolve this is to close and re-open the program.
