Description of the issue: Black screen when going fullscreen, including Youtube/Netflix videos, or just F11 to fullscreen the browser window per Windows hotkey.
How can this issue be reproduced? Going fullscreen in any way – with built-in video button, Windows hotkey for fullscreen, etc.
Expected result: Being able to use the browser in fullscreen mode, or while watching videos.

Additional Information:
Windows 10 build 19044.1586, AMD 1700x, AMD 6800XT, 16GB ram
Happens on all three monitors that I have hooked up, 1080p144hz, 1440p144hz, 1080p60hz. Doesn’t happen with other browsers, nor any other program that I have tried. Have attempted restarting computer, updating drivers, making sure Brave is up to date, and trying all the fixes found by searching forums, including adding “–disable-gpu” to launch commands, disabling hardware acceleration, relaunching Brave, ensuring hardware acceleration is off, removing “–disable-gpu”, restarting again and ensuring that hardware acceleration is off. Have tried with only Brave running, closing all other windows and tabs other than the one I’m using, but still experience black screens when going fullscreen. This occurred in the middle of watching a show, with zero issues in the previous ~5hrs of uptime. No system changes occurred, happened literally out of the blue, and now happens consistently.
