Hey folks, I am not sure if it is meant to be this way, but I noticed that when the terminal window is not in focus, the blush/transparency effect stops working and it goes back on when you click on the window again.

Yep this is totally by design. The system-level policy for all acrylic is that only an active and focused window is allowed to have it. It is unfortunate :)
