So... I have done some experimenting on my own...
Apparently, adding the following options to your xorg.conf might fix the problem when using the fglrx driver:

in
Section "Device"
add the following two lines:

---
Option "VideoOverlay" "on"
Option "OpenGLOverlay" "off"
---

and append the following lines to your xorg.conf:
---
Section "Extensions"
     Option "Composite" "false"
EndSection
---

I don't know why Video-Overlay options might interfere with OpenOffice (and some other programs, too), but disabling the OpenGL Overlay somehow does the trick...
