All this is happening on live install cd, but also after install and after running "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade".

I should also mention that I snapped the window from keyboard (CTRL + SUPER + Left/Right), I cannot reproduce it with mouse.

Same here, it looks a bit like the dark grey lock screen background what you get on gdm lock screen.
Latest gala. Only seems to occur when using the hot-keys.

Found out is the background when using the SUPER-LEFT/RIGHT key, so not the gdm background, but it is almost the same.:P

I believe that this is related to the animation itself. Turning off the animation and using the keybind will not have this issue.
