Research direction
The issue provides no source file, test, or code entry point to begin from, and reproduction is intermittent after wakeup or display changes. Start by establishing a reliable reproduction for the maximized Windows Terminal state. Done means a maximized window no longer overlaps an autohiding taskbar or triggers do-not-disturb mode.
