Tool popup displays even when Pro is not active

When I move my mouse cursor over ArcGIS Pro and then onto another window, the tool popup will display when the cursor stops moving. 

 

For instance, Pro is on my center monitor. If I am working on my right monitor, then transition to the left monitor, my cursor passes Pro on the way to the left monitor. When I get to the left monitor, the popup will display for whichever geoprocessing or editing tool my cursor passed over. The popup shows up wherever the cursor stops, which is usually right in the middle of an email or document. 

This doesn't always occur and seems to randomly start and stop.

The screenshots show the popup displaying over my web browser as I create this post.

I just experienced an identical behavior from Excel.

When my mouse flies past Excel's top window bar, over the last saved status, the "Workbook last saved: just now" popup will display about one second later wherever the mouse is.

 

This may be a windows "feature" and not necessarily a Pro issue.
