Could this be a duplicate of: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=362105

Yes it is the same symptom.
The auto hide was working fine until the recent updates though so this did seem to be a new issue from my perspective. 
Just to add to this though the focused window I currently am accessing neither goes behind or on top of the panel so it seems like this functionality has been completely been disabled. 
I have a work around at the moment and that is to delete the panel do what I need and then just add the panel back. I could move the panel around but deleting and adding is the same effort
