Try setting exportselection to 0, i.e.

listbox.config(exportselection=0)

or in the constructor:

listbox = Listbox(listbox1_frame, exportselection=0)

The selections in the listboxes will not be copied to the clipboard, but
on the other hand you get the effect you wanted, i.e. there can be
selections in more than one listbox at a time.
