When using *some* applications (I observed it with Emacs and gnome-
terminal) in full-screen mode, they flicker once shortly after switching
to them with e.g. Alt-Tab.  To reproduce it:

1. Open Emacs in full-screen mode and one other application (e.g. Chromium).
2. Switch to the other app with Alt-Tab.
3. Switch back to Emacs.

Then I observe:

1. Emacs becomes visible.
2. After a fraction of a second, the Emacs windows is transparent for a very 
very short time (flicker).
3. Then, the windows is stable and usable.

Usually, I do not observe this behaviour right from the start.  I have
to work with the computer for a couple of minutes to see it.  I have
been unable to find out whether a certain action triggers the problem.
However, when it occurs, it does not go away again until the next
restart of the X server.

This is regression that I observe since Ubuntu 19.10.

Changes of the graphics driver does not change anything, however,
switching to Wayland solves the problem.
