I confirm this behavior and observe the same.
After finishing the task bar icon and after some seconds / minutes it stops flickering.
WIN: Windows 11 Business 21H2 22000.469
Dropbox Version: 140.4.1951
I deactivated "Start on system start" (now so that I can continue working)
Affected seems to be editors, browsers, eclipse. ProcessExplorer from Sysinternals doesn't flicker.
It appears long after system start/login (up to hours) not immediately after login or at beginning of work. Logout and login helps. Lock/Unlock doesn't help.
My System has 32GB RAM but only 16GB are used. => seems not to be caused by swapping or memory issue.
Docker and ubuntu is running via hypervisor. LSF2

It's been working for me for 2 or 3 days now
