I don't have any help to offer but I have a problem that is somewhat 
similar: the little icons at the top right (wifi, sound, battery) don't 
get drawn correctly.  Sometimes they are just not there at all --- all I 
see is the default black background --- and sometimes they are there but 
not updated.  In either case, bringing the mouse over one of them will 
work properly, display the hint, and interacting with them works fine.  
(But they are not updated after the interaction.)  Another weird thing 
is that when I get a notification, instead of an envelope icon, I get
copies of my battery icon, but I can get rid of them as if they were the 
regular envelope icon.
 
This is on a brand new installation of wheezy, using gnome classic on 
an Averatec laptop (32 bit) with the openchrome xorg driver.  There's no 
problem on a wheezy 64 bit Sony laptop with the intel xorg driver so I 
have been wondering if it is an xorg driver bug, but I haven't had time 
to dig into this.  (Two other problems that smell of the xorg driver are 
colors being wrong in vlc and totem but fine in mplayer, and lots of 
duplicate graphics appearing after hibernation sometimes --- so I may 
have to log out and back in.)
