Comment:

 Yep, as pointed out in previous comments that's because when set to
 "Display as dropdown" the `<select>` element needs a proper `<label>` that
 uses a `screen-reader-text` CSS class so it's visually hidden. Worth
 noting `screen-reader-text` is included in the WordPress generated CSS
 classes that every theme should provide:

 > Each Theme should have these or similar styles in its style.css
