This bug is now happening on Vivid 15.04 beta2. The tooltips sometimes
disappear, but sometimes not. Sometimes they partially disappear,
sometimes they leave remnants on the screen. All of these problems
disappear when I use Openbox instead of Unity+Compiz.

Title:
  Wine tooltips don't disappear entirely from screen

Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This bug does not happen with Unity 2D or Gnome-Shell. Same problem on
  both Oneiric and Precise (up-to-date).

  When a tooltip from a Wine app disappear, its shadow remains. This can quickly leads to an unusable window.
  To clean these shadows, I have to move the window.

  I confirmed this bug with Mathcad 14, GeNIe and some others not-known
  apps. It does not happen, for example, with VLC or Steam.

  If you want to test with something free and lightweight, you can try
  with Sumatra: http://blog.kowalczyk.info/software/sumatrapdf/download-

  Attached is a picture of a rather extreme case (made with a non-free app).
