Well, I figured out a work around. The problem never seems to occur as long as I have a paragraph mark before the continuous break. I had put the section breaks on the same line as the table titles, like this:

Table #1:::::::::::::::Section Break (Continuous):::::::::::::::¶

If I just put a paragraph mark prior to the break it seems to avoid the problem. So it ends up looking like this:

Table #1¶:::::::::::::::Section Break (Continuous):::::::::::::::¶

Not sure why that would make a difference, but at least I'm making progress now.
