Video showcasing the launcher disappearing despite being pinned

SUMMARY
The new feature of keeping the launcher open at all times with the pin button does not work when launching apps. I would assume that it should.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the kickoff application launcher
2. Click the pin/keep open button
3. Start a program using the launcher

OBSERVED RESULT
The launcher hides, as if it wasn't pinned

EXPECTED RESULT
The launcher stays open, allowing you to start multiple programs consecutively
