Sorry , I made a mistake.
<m:degHide m:val="1" /> leads the correct root sign
and
<m:degHide m:val="on" /> leads a blank square on the left of root sign.

Hello, John. I opened the slides/slide1.xml in example.pptx to see what is the difference between \sqrt{x} and \sqrt[\square]{x}. There is the diffence:
<m:oMath xmlns:m="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/math">
<m:rad>
        <m:radPr>
                <m:degHide m:val="1" />
                        <m:degHide m:val="on" />
                </m:radPr>
                <m:deg />
                <m:e>
                        <m:r>
                                <m:t>x</m:t>
                        </m:r>
                </m:e>
      </m:rad>
</m:oMath>
the red one leads "a blank square on the left of root sign",the blue one leads the correct root sign.
I think the val 1 not = val on in the pptx.
however the xml in sample.docx converted by pandoc is the blue one .

Looks like the pptx writer tries to render math in native
Word format, using texmath to convert just like the docx
writer. I'm not really sure why there would be a difference
in how the same equation appears.
