It doesn’t appear to be a problem in Photoshop App - only Beta.
AND more info - I realise that it is only happening if I switch between programmes while the Batch dialog is running. The first time I run a batch, the batch dialog box disappears virtually as soon as it starts running. The second time, it will stay on screen until the batch has completed. If I switch between programmes (using Cmd + tab) the dialog box refuses to go away. If I run a further batch, a new dialog box appears.
Thanks for the update @NickWhiteThePhotographer curious if you update your prefs if this behavior goes away?
Try resetting Prefs for the Beta: /Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/ Photoshop Beta Settings (Mac Ventura) /Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/Adobe\ Photoshop\ \(Beta\)\ Settings (Mac)
C:\Users\user name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop (Beta)\Adobe Photoshop (Beta) Settings )Win) Launch BETA Photoshop While Pressing The Keyboard Shortcut With Photoshop closed, press and hold Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) / Shift+Command+Option (Mac) on your keyboard and then Launch Photoshop the way you normally would. https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/preferences.html#Manually
@NickWhiteThePhotographer it is suggested to backup your prefs folder, or at least drag to the desktop before resetting due to the Actions issue you mention.

While initially I was able to reproduce this issue, I no longer am able to. Two things have changed and I wonder which may be more relevant. First, I using the latest version of the Beta (meaning a 26.x version instead of 25.x) and I've updated my Mac OS to Sequoia. I'm wondering if you've made similar updates and whether or not you still see the same old behavior.
