I had similar symptoms with my 2002 passenger window not dropping. When I would lift the handle I would hear what I thought was the switch and nothing else. Turns out I was hearing the switch and the window motor all at once. The window regulator cable was either stretched and/or the pulleys were worn enough that the motor would turn, but the window wouldn’t drop due to slack in the cables. It would move every so slightly, but it was hard to tell without really watching for it. Normal window operation was fine the rest of the time.

My recommendation is to look for, or feel for a very slight movement of the window when the door handle is lifted. It may be needed to take the door panel and vapor barrier off to see if the window regulator/motor is moving or not.
