I have two possible workarounds...
1. In the compiz workarounds plugin, enable "Force full screen redraws (buffer swap) on repaint".  This solution will massively increase cpu/gpu usage and drain your battery if you have one so I wouldn't recommend it.
2. Mostly I was just using alpha blur for my terminal windows, so right now I'm getting around this by only using alpha blur on specific window classes (like gnome-terminal), rather than setting alpha blur windows to 'normal' or 'any', and that seems to get around the problem ok as well.
