That's interesting. I'll have to take a look.

Same here, usually. But I managed a few times to have the normal frame
selected. In that case, as I mentioned, I quickly saw the cursor
flicker in the minibuffer window before it showed up on the normal
frame. Also, instead of using the mouse, C-x 5 o followed by C-x o
works too, but C-x o used directly in the minibuffer window does not
work.

One can use
(setq minibuffer-auto-raise t)
If I do that, then typing something into the minibuffer window in the
state where no cursor is seen, automatically switches to the normal
frame.
