I haven't seen anything exactly like this, but it might be related to a
system setting or a terminal setting (if the app is launched from a
terminal) on the affected systems. You might check is whether the
"Secure Keyboard Entry" setting in the Terminal is enabled on the
affected macOS systems. If it is, you should see a timeout warning
message when starting the application as reported in JDK [1]. It seems
possible that this setting might also cause something like you describe.
If that's not the problem, then it could be some other system setting.

I have multiple reports of application freeze (spinning beach ball)

This only occurs on a Mac, and is rare, but can be consistently
reproduced on affected machines. It occurs on both Intel and M1
chipsets. Preferring a software pipeline (prism.order=sw) does not
affect it. I am currently building with JavaFX 18 on JDK 18.
I cannot find any related JavaFX bug report. My own Github issue is
here: https://github.com/sparrowwallet/sparrow/issues/586
Any assistance with further diagnosing or solving this would be
appreciated.
