Yes. Because the location of the texts are backend-dependent, the
location of the xbox surrounding the text are recalculated during the
drawing time. I don't think there is no easy workaround unfortunately.
If you are experienced in matplotlib, you may try is to rewrite the
get_path method of the bbox. The example code below, while a bit
complicated, tries to make the the bbox align with the axes.
ax.title.set_ha("left")
bbox_get_path = bbox.get_path
def my_get_path():
pad = bbox.get_boxstyle().pad*bbox.get_mutation_scale()
x0, y0 = bbox.get_transform().transform_point((0,0))
xx = ax.bbox.x0 - x0
bbox.set_x(xx+pad)
bbox.set_width(ax.bbox.width-2*pad)
return bbox_get_path()
bbox.get_path = my_get_path
