Hello, a workaround that I have discovered is to disable framebuffer
objects in the Compiz OpenGL plugin:

gsettings set
org.compiz.opengl:/org/compiz/profiles/unity/plugins/opengl/
framebuffer-object false

Enter that in the terminal and it would take effect immediately; no
logout required. Of course, we can expect that other desktop features
that absolutely need OpenGL framebuffer objects might glitch or be
affected in some way.

And again, this is just a workaround to make the unsightly behaviour go
away, and by no means a fix. It does give a clue, though, that it's
related to the use of framebuffer objects by whatever it is that renders
shadows and glow effects.
