Cool, glad you got it fixed.

In my experience, turning on certain effects seems to break things. I
have desktop effects turned off, as they don't (currently) seem stable
enough for regular use.
Note that you can also turn on "inactive window color effects"
(Appearance->Colors).
Pros:
- Far more flexible than the WM effect; you can change the color, do
things like dim the text, etc.
Cons:
- The repaints apparently bother some people
- Because it's using the color scheme instead of a WM effect it's "less
pervasive" (though, feel free to gripe about particular apps you'd like
to see use it better ;-) ), and only works on Qt applications.
