SUMMARY
The eyedropper tool seems to work as normal if I change to the tool, select a color, then change back to a brush, but if I hold ALT (I changed it from CTRL) to invoke the eyedropper to select a color, the color updates on the color selector palette, but when I release ALT, the color of the brush hasn't updated, and still draws in the previous color. The color selector palette still shows the eyedropped color, but the brush keeps the previous color. Selecting anything on the color selector palette updates the brush. This is while drawing on a single flat layer with a normal blending mode. This happens with every brush I've tried. This happened in 5.2.2 before I updated to 5.2.9 as well.
