Thanks for your suggestion. I am pretty convinced it is an interaction between the Gnome window manager and the Nvidia driver since it started after I installed the Nvidia driver and it requires me to change the Appearance menu from None to Normal to get rid of the behavior. It does still affect other windows like the download manager for example. But after restarting all I have to do to work around is change the appearance selection under Visual Effects. This really does need to be fixed for final release. Let me know if you want me to try uninstalling the Nvidia driver.
