Do you have icons flashing in the frame when this happens?

I can't trigger it reliably but it always happens after trying a bit.

[AlanJAS]

Yes, there is a flashing icon in the frame.
And yes, you need try a bit.

Could you provide more information about the environment?

Is in a XO or in a desktop? Sugar version?

I can't reproduce this issue.

Can you provide more details ?

[godiard]

I think this is a consequence of #4767.

Can you try to apply ​https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar/pull/341 and test if solves the issue?

[godiard]

I think this was fixed with #4767, please reopen if needed.
