You probably have some function in your configuration file that
requires a window when no window has focus. For example, if you
had

  AddToFunc StratFunction
  + I move

in your config file, the "move" operation doesn't know what window
to operate on and asks the user instead. If you can find out the
responsible command, you can suppress the feedback by adding
"silent" before the command:

  + I silent move

But on the other hand you can probably just remove the command.
To pin it down a working approach would be to remove the commands
from your config file successively to find out which one causes
the problem.
