Thanks - apparently I'm already calling {footmisc} with the option [] so this 
causes a conflict in my current configuration. I will look into that. I'm not 
explicitly using {footmisc} elsewhere in my conf.py - but I am using 
{fancyfoot} which might be related. (I had some LaTeX experts help with 
formatting in the past.)

0. I don't know about a fancyfoot package, it is not on CTAN

$ find . -name '*foot.sty'
./bigfoot/bigfoot.sty
./fixfoot/fixfoot.sty
./ledmac/afoot.sty
./ncctools/manyfoot.sty
./oberdiek/pdfcolfoot.sty
./titlefoot/titlefoot.sty

(there is also /arabtex/afoot.sty in my TeXLive 2015 which is a full install,
nowadays to spare disk space, I don't install full TeXLive)

1. you can try 'passoptionstopackages': 
r'\PassOptionsToPackage{bottom}{footmisc}',
   if footmisc is indirectly loaded by some other package added to preamble

   (in latex_elements)

2. The problem with LaTeX placement of footnotes at fixed distance under text
   shows because sphinx.sty issues \raggedbottom

   You can try adding \flushbottom to reset LaTeX's default which is to
   allow vertical space stretch on pages. Then LaTeX attempts to get text to
   end at same position, except on final chapter pages, thus this indirectly
   sets footnotes more likely at fixed position respective to bottom
   of phyisical page.
