The red pixel moves forward as expected but additionally other pixels are flashing up randomly (once every 10 to 30 second or so). Interestingly those differ in color and intensity but follow the same cycle.
This is a known issue. Basically, the neopixel module and ESP32's underlying RTOS do not play well together. There are ways to circumvent this. One being the use of the RMT facility. See this thread
