Awesome, Lennart! That worked perfectly. I appreciate the help.

It seems like this has something to do with the splash screen. If I turn off the splash screen the problem disappears. To turn off it do M-x customize-option RET Customize variable: inhibit-splash-screen and then set inhibit-splash-screen to "on" and save the value. Does the problem disappear for you if you do this?
