Issue with switching between windowed and full-screen mode apps in macOS Monterey

Hello. In macOS Monterey, when an application is open in full-screen mode and another application is open in windowed mode cmd + tab on the full-screen application does not switch to that full-screen application. Instead, in the menu bar displays full-screen application name, but the windowed application remains in focus and full-screen application is not visible. The same way it works for navigation using cmd + tab, only three finger swipe works as expected.

When windowed application opened I want to switch to chrome using Keyboard or click on "Google Chrome" and thats what I get. As you may see there is no Chrome application, only top bar says about it.

Specs:

MacOS Monterey 12.6.2

Macbook Pro 2021 M1 pro 16GB

MacBook Pro 16″, 12.6

Go to System Preferences->Mission Control and make sure that “When switching to an application, switch to a Space with open windows for that application” is CHECKED.
