New Themes app displayed over other Apps

A bug which has appeared in the previous release (9.5.23) and has continued this current release is an Android System notification "Themes is displaying over other apps".

When the message is selected, it takes you to "Display over other Apps" page, with a switch that is turned on.

Switch is turned off, then some time later (within an hour), the message is back, with the switch being "on" again.

This is blocking some banking apps which are detecting an app (Themes) which is overlaying it, and appearing as a security risk.

EDIT: Add screenshots
