Dock keeps appearing in fullscreen mode
Hello fellow Mac users.
I'm still trying to find a solution for macOS dock randomly appearing after switching to a fullscreen mode app. It's been with me for so long that I almost intuitively move the cursor to the bottom of the screen after switching to fullscreen. I first stumbled upon it as early as OSX 10.10 or 10.11, definitely was in 10.14 and 10.13 and the recording is from 10.15.7.
Here I managed to record this behaviour: https://youtu.be/8MaXMkcYZ0g
I know some of you have experienced a similar behaviour, here are a handful of posts related to the same problem:

https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/391157/macos-dock-remains-visible-in-fullscreen (this is my effort to investigate the issue).
The most common advice is to kill the Dock from time to time but this looks like a placebo and doesn't help to resolve the issue.
killall Dock
Here's what I've tried:
- Execute 'killall Dock';
- Create a new user;
- Reinstall macOS from scratch.
- Try a different machine (got a Late-2013 MBP 15 and MBA 2011)
None of the above helped.
Did anyone managed to find a solution?
