Cursor Lock requires an additional click

I have a cursor lock script set up, and it works pretty good in terms of what its meant to do. But i have one problem, when the cursor is meant to lock, i have to click the screen before it will actually initiate its locked state. I’ve tried a few ways to fix it, and some of them made the script more manageable and direct, but it still never fixed the main issue.
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;
using System.Collections;
using UnityStandardAssets.CrossPlatformInput;
using UnityStandardAssets.Utility;
using Random = UnityEngine.Random;
using UnityStandardAssets.Characters.FirstPerson;

public class GameManager : MonoBehaviour
{
	//----------------------------------------
	// handles
	public UIManager UI;
    public Canvas Pausemenu;
    public GameObject PauseOverlay;
    public FirstPersonController FP;
    public bool CursorL = true;
    CursorLockMode wantedMode;
    //-----------------------------------------
    // function definitions

    public void ToggleCursorLock()
    {
        FP.m_MouseLook.SetCursorLock(CursorL);
        Cursor.lockState = wantedMode;
        // Hide cursor when locking
        Cursor.visible = (CursorLockMode.Locked != wantedMode);
    }

    public void TogglePauseMenu()
	{
		// not the optimal way but for the sake of readability
		if (Pausemenu.GetComponent<Canvas>().enabled)
		{
            Pausemenu.GetComponent<Canvas>().enabled = false;
            Pausemenu.GetComponent<GraphicRaycaster>().enabled = true;
            PauseOverlay.SetActive(false);
            Time.timeScale = 1.0f;
            CursorL = true;
            wantedMode = CursorLockMode.Confined;
        }
		else
		{
            Pausemenu.GetComponent<Canvas>().enabled = true;
            Time.timeScale = 0f;
            CursorL = false;
            Cursor.lockState = wantedMode = CursorLockMode.None;
        }
		Debug.Log("GAMEMANAGER:: TimeScale: " + Time.timeScale);
	}

    public void MenuToggle()
    {
        TogglePauseMenu();
        ToggleCursorLock();
    }

}

I know that this is an old post, but I am dealing with the same issue. Did you manage to find a solution to this? If you could offer any help, it would be great.
