Yep, that's what I'm thinking. And I think it's related to this issue, because
generally the flicker I see is between whatever window I'm hovering over and
the background. You can see this in the original 60fps flicker video
attachment. Moreover, I rebuilt the Arch Linux plasma-desktop package (6.4.0)
after applying your patch and rebooted, and I still see this issue where the
desktop is shown when moving the cursor between the window previews in the task
manager.

When you say that you can see an unrelated window pop up, that's on your own
system? It's reassuring that you're able to reproduce that. Do you think all
these issues are ultimately in how KWin is compositing the windows for the
previews? I think an issue should probably be reported in wherever the source
of the problem is, but it's not totally clear to me if that's KWin or if there
are really separate issues with the task manager, alt-tab switcher, etc etc. If
you have any advice that would be terrific!

Also curious if you're able to reproduce the issue with the desktop when
toggling between active previews for *maximized* windows in the task manager.
