I have been experiencing this issue since I started using cinammon back in 2016. Still happening in 2023 using 21.1.

This is a post more than 10 years ago describing the issue. https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon/issues/1461

I don't feel very enthusiastic about seeing a solution anytime soon, other than moving away from cinammon.
