Hap

Realize this is late and you may no longer be reading this. Plus, I think Dave has it right as usual.

It does for me (happen) in just the scenario you describe. Have been meaning to ask about this, but it's infrequent in my usage and with ForceQuit, not really a problem. But since it's been...
