This happens in 18.04 too. Bug #1650076 does also, and I'm not 100 %
sure if these are two different issues or the same. I was able to
reproduce #1650076 with the steps listed there, but just before that I
had Evince following my scroll wheel despite being unfocussed, and I had
not selected anything in the PDF before that (at least not knowingly). I
haven't found the steps to reproduce this without the selection though.

Title:
evince responds to mouse location when it does not have focus. Scrolls
wildly up or down.
Status in evince package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Evince sometimes gets into a state when it scrolls all the way up or
all the way down in a document, based on where the mouse cursor is,
even though evince does not have the focus, and any of the other
windows is actively receiving input / etc, ie obviously has focus.
