To test I removed the package holds, updated and upgraded to current released packages, and then rebooted. At this point I confirmed the issue in the original report.

Then I rebooted. After reboot I confirmed that these proposed xenial packages did indeed fix the issue. I was once again able to click on the three line/bar icon in Firefox and see the drop down menu list display. I also confirmed that there were no regressions in my testing (no SDDM hang on login, and no screen tearing).
Thank you very much for fixing this problem and seeing it through to xenial-proposed. If there is any more steps you need me to take to get this into an official release package then please let me know.
Hi Timo,
To test I removed the package holds, updated and upgraded to current released packages, and then rebooted. At this point I confirmed the issue in the original report.
Next I enabled the xenial-proposed repository, updated and then installed the following two packages:
sudo apt install xserver- common/ xenial- proposed xserver- xorg-core/ xenial- proposed
Then I rebooted. After reboot I confirmed that these proposed xenial packages did indeed fix the issue. I was once again able to click on the three line/bar icon in Firefox and see the drop down menu list display. I also confirmed that there were no regressions in my testing (no SDDM hang on login, and no screen tearing).
Following is the output you requested earlier.
