Status bar disappearing when apps close

[Blueline29]

Hey all, I have kind of a weird problem. I have just about everything on my status bar that I want, but whenever I go into an app and then (eventually) get back out of it, it seems that the status bar "minimizes" along with the app. The only way to get it back is to use the sleep/awake button. Is there a theme or setting or something that commonly causes this problem? I've tried searching and haven't seen anything that looks exactly like what this problem is, so any advice or suggestions would be appreciated!

Oh, and it doesn't seem to matter which app I go into--it happens with them all.

Just one bump--anybody else had this problem at all?

Did some more searching last night and apparently several people elsewhere had this problem recently, so...on the off chance that somebody here runs into it, all I had to do to "correct" the issue was turn off solid status bar and also delete the status bar icon from the theme I was using. It's sort of a fix, I guess, but not perfect--what happens now is that the status bar--which appears solid within apps--still minimizes along with the app, but the "unsolid" status bar then appears on the home screen. Kind of strange, but at any rate, I can now see the status bar whenever my little heart desires, so I'm happy for the moment.
