I think you're describing an intentional (and very annoying)
behavior on the Metacity window manager:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=482354#c115

I have no idea why anybody thinks this is the right way to
do things. It just means I have to click again to confirm
the things I want to do, based on something as arbitrary
as whether or not I happen to already have an application
running.
