I get exactly the same results and found the following:

If the window size is equal to or smaller than the image size, then
the image is not displayed initially (although it will show up if the
window is resized). I can reproduce this 100% of the time.

If the window size is at least ONE pixel size larger than the image
size, in any of the two directions (either width or height), then the
image is shown initially. Again this happens 100% of the time.

Don't know what's going on internally but I'd say it does not look
like a race condition.

Best,
