hideSheet() being executed, but not actually hiding the sheet

I am running this function i made in Google Apps Script for a spreadsheet add-on. It does everything right, but every OTHER execution it doesn't hide the sheet. Any ideas?

function addEmailNew(formObject)
var newEmail = formObject.addEmailText;
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
ss.getSheetByName("No Touching!").activate();

//find the last string value in a column
var Avals = ss.getRange("J:J").getValues();
var Alast = Avals.filter(String).length + 1;
ss.getSheetByName('No Touching!').getRange("J" + Alast).setValue(newEmail);

//THIS IS THE THING THAT WORKS EVERY OTHER TIME
SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().hideSheet();

openDialog();
return Logger.log("this did stuff");

It's fine to get the active sheet, but prior to hide it, activate another sheet. Try something like the following:

var sheetToHide = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
ss.getSheetByName("Other sheet").activate();
sheetToHide.hideSheet();


If the problem persists, add SpreadsheetApp.flush(); on a new line after hideSheet().

SpreadsheetApp.flush();

hideSheet()
