Problem with Mouse-over events

I am having a weird issue with the mouse pointer not being able to find the map graphic. I thought at first it was my event code, but I know that is not the case. I noticed that when using Google dev tools to inspect the graphic, the mouse pointer couldn't find a lot of them. Interestingly, some graphics seem to be 'hoverable' and some don't. Here some pics to illustrate:

Sorry, print screen won't show the point, but I am hovering the pointer directly over the graphic. My code works as expected here, and I get a popup dialog.

In this screen capture, the pointer is hovering directly over the graphic west of Okaloosa but I am unable to isolate the graphic. This is the case for most of the graphics in the layer.

Some more background, this is a WAB developer app that was created and exported to our local server. I created another test application using the exact same feature layer, and identical configuration and I don't have this issue!

I am using the local layer widget, and connecting the the layer through ArcGIS REST, then adding a custom renderer to the local layer config. The configs for both apps are identical, so I don't think the renderer can be the issue. Also, I tried just rendering the graphics as is from the REST service and am getting the same results, so I am fairly certain the renderer is not the issue.

Here is the javascript I am using for the event:

let woLayer = this.map.getLayer("Nuisance Wildlife Operator Info");
        console.log("nwo layer ", woLayer);
        this.map.on("load", function() {
          console.log("map loaded");
          this.map.graphics.enableMouseEvents();          
        })

        let dialog = new Dialog ({
          id: "operator popup",
          style: "position: absolute; width: 250px; font: normal normal normal 10pt Helvetica;z-index:100"
        });
        dialog.startup();

        var highlightSymbol = new SimpleFillSymbol(
          SimpleFillSymbol.STYLE_SOLID,
          new SimpleLineSymbol(
            SimpleLineSymbol.STYLE_SOLID,
            new Color([255,0,0]), 3
          ),
          new Color([125,125,125,0.35])
        );
        console.log("highlight symbol ", highlightSymbol);

        let map = this.map;
        this.own(on(woLayer, "mouse-over", function(evt) {
          console.log("mouseover event", evt.graphic);
          var highlightGraphic = new Graphic(evt.graphic.geometry,highlightSymbol);
          console.log("highlight graphic ", highlightGraphic);
          map.graphics.add(highlightGraphic);
          console.log("map graphics ", map.graphics);
          dialog.setContent("this is a test");
          Popup.open({
            popup: dialog,
            x: evt.pageX,
            y: evt.pageY
          });
          /*
          setTimeout(function() {
            Popup.close(dialog);
          }, 1000);
          */
        }));
        /*
        woLayer.on("mouse-out", function(evt) {
          Popup.close(dialog);
          console.log("mouse out event", evt);
        });‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Like I said, the code appears to be working so I don't know if this is a browser issue (I am using Chrome), but the same issue appears in Firefox as well. I am using the same script in another app and it is working just fine. If anyone has had a similar issue and found a fix, please let me know. I think it is probably something to do with the graphics, but I don't know what to look for.

Thanks!
