Are they actually clicking New Ticket In?  Merely selecting the queue
in the dropdown triggers JS that pushes you to the New Ticket in page

If you're actually seeing that not fire and it jumps around then that
sounds like a browser bug of some kind.

If you want RT to retain the most recently submitted to Queue in that
list, there's a configuration option for that:

It's also available on the per-user preferences page.
