Bug Description

I play War Thunder using Playonlinux and Wine.

The game stays minimized in the dock when I try to run it in full screen mode. The content of the game screen is visible in the workspace overview and in the window overview, so the game is running. I can use 'ALT-TAB' to switch to the game but from the moment I release the keys, the game minimizes again.

Running the game in windowed mode does not display this behavior.

Fresh install, fully updated.
Graphics card: Mobility Radeon HD5600, using the open source drivers.
