I am able to reproduce this again in Windows.

I think I figured out the issue. The VUI box around the text has to be larger than the font size.

This mlt works as it should, or at least how I perceive it should work by design. I had to increase the box around the text, and it now clearly shows when clicking on another track or output.

For a font size of 250, the background size height has to be 413 or larger.
