I forgot to mention that this is on Ubuntu 18.04, kernel 4.15.0-32 and all packages up to date.

Curiously, if I view the image via display(1) command of ImageMagick or via the eog viewer used by GNOME file manager, then it displays with the checked background. But if I view it via file:/// protocol in Chrome, then the background shown is correct.
