Prevent zoom window from popping up on the screen

So I am on a zoom meeting now, and I am not looking at the screen that they share, instead I do something in the browser. Why does the zoom window every now and then pops up on my screen and is the only window seen? This didn't happen in the past and now out of a sudden it shows on my screen when not asked to. Is this a bug? If not, how to turn this off?

Same here.  The pop up before the host joins keeps popping up even when I'm using another application.  This is both an irritation and an accessibility failure.  Something minimized that doesn't have focus should not keep re-gaining focus without the user's input.

Has anyone figured out a fix for this yet?
