error in full screen after update

I am not sure what setting I changed that made this happen. I am now no longer seeing the bar of controls on the bottom after a nights worth of 30 minute TV shows like Bob's Burgers, Archer, Dilbert, Rick and Morty, so on. This all started when I upgraded to the most recent version about a week ago. When I go to full screen just for a single movie or just a few shows, this doesn't happen. Time seems to be a factor here!

What's going on? How can I fix this?

Reset prefs and then try again: https://wiki.videolan.org/VSG:ResetPrefs

Is there a way to save my audio settings when doing this?

I don't think so. Resetting prefs returns all settings to defaults.
