To reproduce it: 1. Open Emacs in full-screen mode and one other application (e.g. Chromium). 2. Switch to the other app with Alt-Tab. 3. Switch back to Emacs. Then I observe: 1. Emacs becomes visible. 2. After a fraction of a second, the Emacs windows is transparent for a very very short time (flicker). 3. Then, the windows is stable and usable. Usually, I do not observe this behaviour right from the start. I have to work with the computer for a couple of minutes to see it. I have been unable to find out whether a certain action triggers the problem. However, when it occurs, it does not go away again until the next restart of the X server. This is regression that I observe since Ubuntu 19.10. Changes of the graphics driver does not change anything, however, switching to Wayland solves the problem.
