Curious:  For those apps that exhibit that behavior, are they running on
Debian 9 or Fedora 25 templates?

I'll be honest, I primarily run Debian templates and in anticipation of
the official release of Debian 9 this week, I've been slowly migrating
my Debian 8 templates to Debian 9, and I've started to notice that
behaviour as well. It does *not* happen under Debian 8 on kernel 4.9.
And I've been running 4.9 kernels in dom0 since December. I *have* been
running Debian 9 as my sys-net for months, though, and the
NetworkManager applet seems fine. I haven't tested extensively, but for
me, the IBus (for keyboard langauge switching) icon has a black overlay,
and when I play music through Rhythmbox on Debian 9, the pop up message
that displays when a new song is played is a little corrupted (but that
never happened on the same kernel on Debian 8).

Since it works fine in Debian 8 (I haven't tested much with any
Fedoras), I'm wondering if it's less a kernel issue and more of an issue
with newer X or how Qubes integrates with newer X (but I guess if it
works properly on 4.4, it may be a combination of the three; don't know
how to fix it though).

Intel Sandy Bridge is my system; haven't tested on other hardware.
