Bug Description
I ve upgraded from Xubuntu 21.04 to 21.10 and after that programs like KeePassXC, Firefox or all Qt5 examples have ugly render problems.
It turned out that I ve disabled the "display compositing" (XFCE settings --> Window Manager Tweaks --> Compositor --> Enable display compositing).

When I ve enabled the display compositing, the problems are gone.
