Access to confidential issues by assignees not working

I have an issue with the confidential issue feature. (Using the community edition)

From the Gitlab docu: Confidential issues | GitLab can be accessed only by project members who are at least reporters (they can’t be accessed by guests). Additionally they can be accessed by their authors and assignees

The bold bit doesn’t seem to work for me. I have a user with the “Guest” Role. He can not see confidential issues normaly. That is expected. But according to the documentation he should be able to access the issues if he is the assignee. Am I missing something?

Thanks.
