Public bug reported: When I switch to another virtual desktop using Ctrl-Alt-[Left,Right], the windows from my previous desktop remain there and are still visible as if they were part of the desktop background. In front of them, I can see my actual windows from the desktop that I'm visiting currently. Desktop icons overlap the windows in the background.
I can't interact with the windows in the background but their content is updated live as the applications are running. Switching desktops using the Activities overview works correctly as expected without this issue.
