Description

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes

  • VS Code Version: 1.73.0 (Universal)
  • OS Version: MacOS 13.0 (22A380) Apple M1

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Connect your laptop with an external display.
  2. Use your vscode on fullscreen. (On any display)
  3. Start using your vscode, after sometime it will start happening. (No pattern here, Unable to reproduce consistently)
  4. Maybe switching between two displays triggers this issue. Not sure. (Like browser on main display then switch to vscode on another display and it happens)

Flickering happens on the main and external display as well. Flickering is random. Sometimes the screen goes black for a long (3-4 secs). Sometimes it flickers continuously.

Will publish more related videos. It's pretty random. Unable to record all situations.
