I think this may be a concentration thing. I have noticed my stepdad does this a lot with my mom, although he doesn't respond. She talks to him while he's watching tv, or reading, or looking at his phone and then he responds not really understanding what she was talking about. When people start to talk to me when I'm doing something, I actually interrupt them and ask them to wait until I'm done and then I engage them in conversation with my full attention. I can't hear them and be responding to an email at the same time.
