After I realized this strange behavior I ran the live iso (lubuntu-18.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso) and it was the same. But when I run the live iso within virtualbox it does not happen. Maybe a particular device of my DELL Optiplex 755 is responsible. In addition to my description, the prompt seems to show up "earlier" when other applications are running. It seems that any event, not only a mouse movement or keystroke brings up the prompt again. Maybe the problem is easier to reproduce if you run nothing but a terminal emulator with non blinking cursor. With blinking cursor the blinking stops when the focus is elsewhere. The blinking seems to be event enough to bring the prompt back.
