EOS R occasionally gets "stuck" on brightly exposed shot

Strangest thing. The EOS R that I have will occasionally (not often) get "stuck" with a really bright LCD screen. No amount of touching the back LCD or fiddling will pull the camera into proper exposure. The only thing that works is turning the camera off and then back on again.

Is this a known bug, or should I send this unit back?

After some testing, I see that this occasionally happens right after taking a lens cap off. When you turn on the camera before taking the lens cap off and then remove the lens cap, the camera LCD appears very bright as the camera meter adjusts exposure to the light. Sometimes, though, the exposure never gets adjusted down, and the LCD (and picture) remains intensely bright.
