How to prevent shape layer masks from creating a contour?

Hey there! 🙂

I just wonder... when I mask an image by using a shapes' alpha channel it will create an ugly contour (it seems that the shape layer won't make a 100% overlay above the image below it and that the edge of the original image below comes through, without the colored and multiplied layer style of that shape mask layer above it)

Is there any way to prevent that? the actual contour of the shape is fully disabled.

Error or problem

So damn weird! Could you send me over your edit? So that I can look into it over here myself

What format would you suggest? I will play around a bit but for now this issue kinda makes 0 sense?

No matter what I try, as soon as an image got bright parts, these parts will be clearly visible as thin line. Darker parts won't show up like this of course because I assume it blends in with the dark overlay.
