Thank you for the bug report!

It looks like you enabled the Vulkan rendering backend for QtQuick. This is known to be be unstable. Try setting it to "Automatic" and see if this fixes the issue. See also the linked bug report for more information.

Yes this does seem to have fixed the issue, even though I could have sworn I tried that! Thank you very much for you help.
