What is your definition of "completely isolated"? If it isn't: 'self-contained battery powered, with no other external connections, in a sealed high quality insulating box' (e.g. a perspex, HDPE or polystyrene sheet box supported by teflon or other highly insulating rods), then something else may be going on, likely involving leakage currents, but if the circuits have high voltage sections, possibly involving ionisation of the air.
<LOL> too late, I *knew* they weren't properly isolated . . . .
