It appears this is specific to the monitor - on one screen which is attached to a Thunderbolt dock it flickers, on the internal screen of my laptop it does not. The effect behaves similar to bug 449961, so I'm marking this as a duplicate since 449961 is the more general description.

Sorry, that's bug 450036, not 449961 (which is this one).
