Cursor not blinking unless FadeOut is present

[alukach]

Description

I've noticed that the cursor does not automatically blink in the most basic of demos (unless CSS is manually added to ensure the cursor blinks).

However, the full demo page works because there is a fadeOut example on the page.

Demo

Basic demo, broken, no fadeOut example included
Working, after I've added a fadeOut example

Expected behavior: [What you expect to happen]
Cursor should blink in basic demo.

Actual behavior: [What actually happens]
Cursor does not blink.

Reproduces how often: [What percentage of the time does it reproduce?]
100%

Additional Information

My guess is that the bug is related to #285 and possible resolved by #306 (I have not tried)

+1 Will this be fixed soon ?

Temporary solution:

CSS:

@keyframes typedjsBlink {
  50% { opacity: 0; }
}
.typed-cursor {
  animation: typedjsBlink 0.7s infinite;
}

In line 552 of typed.js:
this.cursor.className = 'typed-cursor';

Change for:
this.cursor.className = 'typed-cursor typed-cursor--blink';
