Default Arc-fault breaker on troffer lights tripping

I've got a HomeLine 20 amp Arc-fault breaker that intermittently trips on a
circuit that has troffer lights. Is this a common problem?? There are two
3-way switches controlling the lights. When I turn on the lights, the
breaker may trip. I try to reset the breaker, but it will continue to trip
until I shut the light switch off.

Not sure how to fix this, or if I should just replace the arc-fault breaker
with a regular 20 amp breaker. Thanks for your advice.
