Dual monitor bugged in Sonoma

I've did a test upgrade with Sonoma (14.1) and I have issues (tested with PS 2024 and 2023) while setting up windows in 2nd monitor:

 

 I can drag panels to 2nd monitor but as soon as I dock them to each other they stop responding and cant use (or move) them because any click on them exits PS and reverts to Finder. I did have a few saved workspaces that work but most didnt, unfortunately cant screen record both monitors at same time, but here is what it looks on my extended monitor with photoshop panels (using ALT-TAB to switch back to PS after it auto-exits):

I've tried disable and enable "displays have separate spaces" with no distinguishable results, also changed "click wallpaper to reveal desktop" to "only in stage manager" , and also didnt work.

 

EDIT: BTW in 2023 cant even move toolbar without first enabling "aplication frame":

Thank you Apple for updating the OS and thanks for letting us know there was an update @jane-e. It works correctly for me now. Thanks everyone for pushing this problem along to get it resolved.

This bug is not fixed in Sonoma 14.1.1!!!

With Photoshop 15 and 14.7.1 dropdown lists are buggy!

 Apple updated macOS Sonoma to 14.1.1 today (Nov 7), can you confirm that this fixes the issue?

Tested the panels being separated and that works but selecting tools in the tool bar doesn't still. This is in Photoshop. However, in Illustrator I had to create a custom tool bar which is a workaround for now. Still very annoying.

@darrenj92080900  Have you tried switching off 'reveal desktop' in osx settings?

I have tried separating the panels and was still having the problems. I went back to my saved workspace but I'll try it again after turning on the clicking the desktop function and see.
