Thanks for the bug report.
1. Please open the Extensions app (from package gnome-shell- extension- prefs) and ensure you only have the three Ubuntu extensions loaded.
2. Please run these commands in a Terminal to remove any locally-installed extensions you might have:
cd ~/.local/ share/gnome- shell/
rm -rf extensions
3. Log in again and tell us if the problem returns.
4. If the problem does return then it might be related to the flood of 'unable to update icon for multiload' messages in your log. To test that theory please disable 'Ubuntu AppIndicators' in the Extensions app.
