Sorry, I got confused, you don't use software rendering, but there are a few problems in your nvidia configuration, could you  install the correct driver and check if you get the issues again?
Thanks a lot!

Title:
  Display is unrefreshed/corrupted when opening/closing/switching
  windows and tabs

Status in Compiz:
  Incomplete
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When I switch between windows, or switch between tabs in the same
  window, or switch desktops, part or all of the affected windows often
  fail to repaint (or repaint and then revert to "stale" content).
  Unfocusing/refocusing the affected window usually forces it to repaint
  again (but may then leave another window "stale").

  It doesn't seem toolkit-specific (happens with xchat, firefox, chrome,
  skype, gnome-terminal, ...).

  Attached is a screenshot showing an example of corruption after
  switching between two tabs in xchat.
