This seems related to Bug 527298 but that was with a much older version of Firefox and specifically related to using Flash in fullscreen mode.
Also I can't reproduce that particular bug when youtubes html5 option is off and it is using the flash video player. In that case Firefox will let me play a full screen video while using the other one for work.
Confirmed problem in html5 mode with both click/alt+tab exiting from fullscreen, no problem if flash enabled
