This seems to be related to bug #153204.

Could you check if the following workaround works for you?

Type the following line in a Terminal
sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager

Start Advance Desktop Effects Settings (System->Preferences->Advance Desktop Effects Settings).
Click on "General Options" under "General", uncheck "Unredirect Fullscreen Windows" (should be 3rd from the bottom).
Click on Back and Close.

Does the flicking still happens?
