OK, yes, it turns out that mouse focus vs. click focus is indeed the differentiator for me, but it's a bit more complicated than that. If I have focus set to mouse when I log in, then this bug manifests even if I change focus to click. If I have focus set to click when I log in, then this bug does not occur even if I change focus to mouse. So the deciding factor seems to be the focus setting that's active at the time the user logs in.
