Incoming calls "grab the mouse"

As much as we love our system, EVERYONE complains about how disruptive incoming phone calls are when the user is working on their computer.   Is there a setting we can use to turn this off?  It's not sensible that a desktop app would do something like this - grab the mouse away from what the user is doing every time a call comes in.  It's nerve-wracking.

On my macintosh, getting a zoom call does not move the mouse focus.

Thank you - that's very helpful information.  I hope Zoom hears this and fixes it for those of us who are working in a Windows environment.
