Can you maybe capture a video of what you're seeing? (something like ScreenToGif would work well). I'm not sure I'm seeing this locally.

I am seeing the mouse pointer hiding, but that's... kinda by design, with the whole "hide pointer on input" thing. It's definitely weird, but not totally unexpected.

If the caption button icons were missing though, or the Terminal was hung, then that's definitely unexpected.

If the hang is reproducible, when the Terminal is frozen like this, could you grab a dump with Task Manager and send it to us?
