Proximity Sensor Issue topic

I've been getting a weird issue with my proximity sensor on my Note 4. It becomes... I suppose you could call it 'overzealous.' Even when not in a call, waving your finger over it will turn off the screen, no matter what screen it's on, home, lock, a game, Chrome, etc. And it's not just COVERING the sensor, it projects out to just over an inch away from the glass, so when I, say, go to pull down the notifications shade, the screen will turn off. It requires a restart to fix.

Anybody else had this particular issue?
