When I start Emacs 24.5.50.1 with the -Q option and load a file with the
following contents

(setq default-frame-alist '((minibuffer . nil)))

(set-frame-parameter nil 'alpha (cons 100 80))

and I now type C-h f in the "alpha frame", I can indeed see "the alpha
frame flash (at least on Windows)".  Since I cannot reproduce this
flashing with a build of Emacs 25.3.50.1, I'm marking this bug as done.

Thanks for the report, martin
