UEFI GOP: screen goes blank during boot after loader is finished

I'm just getting started using bhyve (on a 13-CURRENT host from Oct 28), and 
for the work I'm doing need to use UEFI. However, I'm finding that when booting 
FreeBSD 12.0-BETA4 the screen goes blank as FreeBSD takes over the console 
after the loader is finished.

The command I'm running is:

sudo bhyve -A -P -c 2 -H -m 4G -s 0:0,hostbridge -s 31:0,lpc -s 2,ahci-
cd,FreeBSD-12.0-BETA4-amd64-disc1.iso -s 
29,fbuf,tcp=0.0.0.0:5900,w=800,h=600,wait -l bootrom,/usr/local/share/uefi-
firmware/BHYVE_UEFI.fd -u vm5

Am I missing something, or has something broken in -CURRENT or 12.0-BETA4?
