Chat messages marked read before I see them

If I have an active chat, but I have minimized zoom or have focus in a different app, and I get a new message, I get a notification of the new message. I can’t respond to ever message as it comes in so I ignore it. When I return to zoom to check my messages or if I click on the notification from another message, that one from the previously “active” chat is marked read. If it’s been a while or if I was away from my computer when that notification comes, I may forget that message came in. I’m not a fan. I did have a recent update and this seems like a newer feature.
