AND, after a second or two, the screen switches back to the original window (e.g., t-bird). This tends to suggest something X-related.

In my case I see instants of black screen on a Lenovo P50 with
Fedora 24, using Intel graphics.

Looks like a refresh problem, or maybe something related to switching
the panel to the right gfx adapter (there is a dormant nvidia too,
with nouveau blacklisted).

My compositor is kwin.
