If you set it to either cookies, or sessions - does it work? And I assume setting it to sessions only (via config.php) does allow it to work again?

Setting the Control Panel Session Type to “Cookies only” for both sites:
I’m unable to log in to the CP via standard /system URL.
I can log in via the masked CP access we set up using admin.php and can switch sites.
Setting the Control Panel Session Type to “Session ID only” for both sites:
I can log in to the CP via standard /system URL. I cannot switch sites.

Just to reiterate - my goal is to have the Control Panel Session Type set to “Cookies and session ID” and my staff should be able to log in to both sites via the standard /system URL.

Yes, I understand the end goal, we’re just doing some troubleshooting along the way.
Are you running any extensions by any chance?
What we know now is that this seems to be a cookie issue, since it works when sessions only are enabled. Have you tried removing that line from config.php, with both cookie domains filled in, and then clearing out your browser cookies to see if that will help?
