it seems that the flicker is the selected animation choosing the color of the "Windows - Background" color from your current theme. the color it should be matching, i believe, is what "Controls" color scheme you may have selected. the way to recreate this is to change the "Windows - Background" color in your Appearance Settings with the animation setting in Compiz active and you'll see that it grabs that color.
