It is only LibreOffice.  It looks like it very quickly minimized
and them restores.  It is fast enough that you can't see anything
behind the window.  I just see a flicker.

I'm also experiencing this flickering issue under XFCE.
If I open LibreOffice and leave the mouse pointer over a recent document preview image, this image starts blinking.
A similar issue happens if I leave the mouse pointer over a menu icon (e.g., open a document and move the mouse pointer over the "Save" button; the image will start flickering).

This issue is not present under GNOME (I tried both in the Wayland and the X.org version of GNOME).
