Current Behavior
When switching to split window mode my gaps disappear. This is only in the workspace, if I switch to another workspace the gaps are still there... This primarily happens on workspace 3 (T), it only happens sometimes, and usually (but not always) when my browser (Vivialdi) is open. Fastest way to fix this is to close all windows in workspace and then open new ones, best way to fix it is to reboot, where it takes a while before it happens again
Expected Behavior
Gaps should be persistent between state switching
Reproduction Instructions
Open a window or 2, switch to any mode, then switch to split mode
