I am running $ uname -a
Linux pop-os 5.4.0-7626-generic #30~1588169883~20.04~bbe668a-Ubuntu SMP 
Wed Apr 29 21:00:02 UTC  x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

$ apt show mutter
Package: mutter
Version: 3.36.1-3ubuntu3

This is the default install configuration for Pop!_OS.  Under this 
configuration, the bug is no longer reproduceable in LibreOffice Calc, 
but is consistently present in LibreOffice Writer.

I am installing --proposed updates and will reboot and retest.
