I have not, but if I reboot the computer to an install of Jessie using fglrx the tinge is not present; and it appeared shortly after updating to Jessie + unstable. I'll try a few things with the cable & report back if any of them have an impact, but the fglrx test suggests this problem is 100% fixable in software.
