Does anyone have a setup for reproducing? The one in the duplicate is weird.
You can use a single lava block as shown in
[media].
Then go about 10 blocks away, pull the bow completely back and shoot through the lava.
Confirmed for 1.13.1.
I found this as well, I noticed that it almost never catches on fire when there is a lava block right in front of the dispenser, but it does catch on fire when there is at least 1 air block between the dispenser and lava.
1.16 Pre-7 issue as well. Might include a video later on if I can

Yeah this happens to me almost every time, even when fired through several blocks of lava.
