I don't think it is really a bug.

Workspace switching is a smooth(ish) animation. Not instantaneous. As
part of that animation, windows from the old workspace fly out and
windows from the new workspace fly in. If your monitors are arranged
vertically then this means the windows are indeed flying over the other
monitor that's not switching.

Possible solutions would be:

 (a) Gnome Tweaks > Appearance > Animations = OFF ; or
 (b) Arrange your monitors horizontally ; or
 (c) Ask Gnome for a new feature to arrange workspaces horizontally ; or
 (d) Ask Gnome to hide windows from the other monitor during switch animations.

If you wish to go ahead with (c) or (d) then please report it at 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues
and let us know the ID of the new bug.
