[Bug 1119608] [NEW] Closing windows sometimes shows black areas using Nvidia 313.x drivers

 

Public bug reported:

When using Nvidia 313.09 and 313.18 drivers, closing windows often causes black areas around the disappearing window. This happens quite randomly, though there are windows that are affected more often (in my case this was the "System Settings" window).
I found a way to reproduce the bug more likely: Pressing the close button and alt+f4 simultaneously.
The following video shows this effect (you can see: sometimes it happens, sometimes not):
