Sorry for following up my own post, but the laptop results were
unexpected. Either drag-and-drop or using menu Insert gave the same
results - both produced an object showing the blue 'film' icon, in
the design mode, and at the video start when running a slide show.
It's a recent low-end Dell pentium laptop, Intel integrated
graphics. It's running the same version of LO/Mint as the desktop I
normally use.

Maybe it is worth posting a sample presentation that works for you
somewhere so that Mike could test it? And maybe Mike could do the same
so you could test his presentation to see whether it works or not for
you?
Maybe. Thanks for the input.
I've now looked in content.xml. The difference between getting the video
in by drag and drop, and via the Insert menu seems to be purely that D&D
links, while insert (by default) embeds the video. All other parameters
seem the same:
<draw:frame draw:style-name="standard" draw:layer="layout"
svg:width="34cm" svg:height="19.125cm" svg:x="17.6cm" svg:y="21.4cm">
<draw:plugin xlink:href="../../fireworks%20composite.mp4"
xlink:type="simple" xlink:show="embed" xlink:actuate="onLoad"
draw:mime-type="application/vnd.sun.star.media">
<draw:param draw:name="Loop" draw:value="false"/>
<draw:param draw:name="Mute" draw:value="false"/>
<draw:param draw:name="VolumeDB" draw:value="0"/>
</draw:plugin>
</draw:frame>
and
<draw:frame draw:style-name="standard" draw:layer="layout"
svg:width="29.085cm" svg:height="16.36cm" svg:x="2.8cm" svg:y="2.2cm">
<draw:plugin xlink:href="Media/fireworks composite.mp4"
xlink:type="simple" xlink:show="embed" xlink:actuate="onLoad"
draw:mime-type="application/vnd.sun.star.media">
<draw:param draw:name="Loop" draw:value="false"/>
<draw:param draw:name="Mute" draw:value="false"/>
<draw:param draw:name="VolumeDB" draw:value="0"/>
</draw:plugin>
</draw:frame>
If I do an insert, and ask for the video to be linked, I again get the
poor fade-in behaviour - the dummy placeholder shows (behind the text)
as the slide fades in and is replaced by the playing video (on top of
the text) when fade-in is complete.
Doesn't seem affected by switching between nv and nouveau graphics drivers.
I've no idea yet where the z ordering is saved. In all cases the video
plays in front of everything else. Might this be a video hardware
limitation of some sort?
