It looks like the latest gnome-shell fixed the issue for me:
apt policy gnome-shell

Title:
Graphical corruption Intel HD Graphics 630 when using Firefox nightly
in Wayland mode
Status in Mozilla Firefox:
Unknown
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Status in mutter package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Also tracked in: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1604948
Once every few starts of Firefox on my machine ends up corrupting the
display of my Wayland session badly - what looks like a lot of stray
marks on my display are seen overlaid on top of all windows, not just
Firefox.
Logging out and logging back in resolves the issue, but there is a
chance that it recurs on next launch.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Start Gnome session in Wayland mode.
2. Start Firefox Nightly with MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1
What happens:
Various issues, including "unknown" application appearing in task
switcher, stray marks on screen, and dead/inactive windows that
persist over other windows even when switching virtual desktops.
Response from Firefox bugzilla says:
This is likely a bug in GS 3.34, fixed by
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/924 and
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/815, included in
3.34.2 which should arrive soon in Ubuntu 19.10.
