1999 Manual Transmission Problem??

I have 1999 9-5 with 95,000 miles and the car still runs great. However, recently I have been having trouble downshifting into second. It shifts in to second smoothly while accelerating but will not allow second to be selected from third until I have come to almost a full stop.
The most perplexing part of this problem is it completely goes away once the engine has warmed up.
Has any one experienced this problem before? Is my assumption correct that it is a synchro gear? If it is a synchro gear why would the problem go away when the engine warms up? Could this problem lead to more damage to the transmission? And lastly does any one have any idea how much it may cost to fix?
Any help is very apperciated
Thanks
