I'm suspecting the same - and I was also not able to reproduce it in
a local installation (pip-installed sphinx trying to match the
dependencies and versions). However, it seems the culprit is at
"case/mock.py":51:

call = mock.call

In case a new upload of sphinx does not land in time, perhaps a
workaround along the lines of:

diff --git a/docs/reference/case.mock.rst b/docs/reference/case.mock.rst
index 1a28a5c..2b6562c 100644
--- a/docs/reference/case.mock.rst

@@ -9,3 +9,4 @@
 .. automodule:: case.mock
     :members:
     :undoc-members:
+    :exclude-members: call

might be acceptable? While not the ideal solution, the upstream
generated docs [1] end up including the docstring from
"unittest.mock._Call" [2] for that member, which might not provide too
much relevant info for end users anyway (and the inheritance from
"tuple" might be related to the original error).
