When I hover over an item in the taskbar, I get a balloon popup with
more information, but it displays behind the taskbar, so I can not see it.

This is with taskbar locked or not locked - a one row task bar (not
heightened).

Is there a fix for this?

 Integrity is obvious.
 The lack of it is common.
