I am using Ubuntu 20.04 Development Branch. I have experienced something
similar. When you minimize one program's window, you cannot click on the
window that is currently showed (i.e. the window that was under the
minimized window). In order to activate it, you need to go to Activities
or click on that application's icon on Ubuntu dock. For example, you
open Files, LibreOffice and Google Chrome (in this order). You minimize
Google Chrome, and then you cannot click on LibreOffice unless you click
on the LibreOffice icon on Ubuntu dock.

Title:
Minimized windows appears behind focused on clicking dropdown menu
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
It's happening to me in GNOME. I don't know if it would occur in KDE,
Xfce, Budgie...
When I click in a dropdown menu (example that do this: Sound device
picker in gnome-control-center, example that don't: the hamburger menu
in nautilus/terminal) the minimized windows un-minimize and appear
behind the focused window, although you can't control most of the
window (maximize and close works, clicking the icon in dock makes it
usable).
Steps to reproduce:
1. Minimize all windows
2. Open gnome-control-panel
3. Go to Appearance, for example.
4. Click a drop-down i.e. dock position.
Maximizing the window makes it maximize but minimize at the same time.
Closing the window works. Minimize and the rest of the window simply
doesn't work.
Using:
Description: Ubuntu Focal Fossa (development branch)
Release: 20.04
I have NVIDIA proprietary drivers (440.64).
What I expect:
Normal behavior, not to get the minimize window behind the focused window.
