For me, the keyboard keys are flickering (all of them together;
sometimes there, sometimes not, within seconds; keys reappear when I
start press anywhere again)

For me, the keyboard at least still appears.

The proposed change to disable and re-enable unlock-pin didn't help,
the issue is still there.

1) In Terminal App, the "Show Keyboard" Button is visible when the keys
are not. (The Keyboard itself is visible as a white box.)
But it doesn't (re-)trigger the keyboard, instead the backspace button
is triggerd as both buttons share the same location (at least they are
near to each other^^)

2) When trying to re-enable unlock security PIN, the keys are initially
  visible but when the keys disappear then, the (empty, white) keyboard
box is smaller. (I've attached a screenshot.)

(btw, as described above, flickering is me :D)
