This looks like some piece of random memory gets loaded into the few bytes of memory mapped to the display.

It could be tons of things, but maybe it's something like the boot loader not being entirely compatible with the current software image.

If it is an emptied out supercap and the thing isn't entirely dead, the problem should rectify itself, shouldn't it?

But as long as the system boots up normally afterwards and works as expected, it's probably harmless. It couldn't hurt to drop Dolby an e-mail though, it seems you're not the only one to have this issue, so it might as well be a known issue to them.
