That's not a bug, it's a feature -- TDE knows Chrome shouldn't be opening at
all on a Linux system, so it puts it in an appropriate place. :)

Seriously, though...  First thing I'd fiddle with is Focus Stealing
Prevention in Chrome.

Window menu (top left) / Advanced / Special Window Settings / Workarounds

check Focus stealing prevention, select Force.  It'll be set to None; I'd
try Low, and if that doesn't do the trick, try next higher setting until it
does.
