I have the same problem. Running on a multi monitor setup with https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/921/multi-monitors-add-on/.

I found a workaround, which is not really comfortable. You can remove the extension under https://github.com/bigbn/drop-down-terminal-x and re-enable it, then it's working again.

Somehow it seems, that gdkDisplay is not correctly initialized on a first login with multi-monitor?

Update: Disabling "Multi-monitor mode" in Drop-Down-Terminal-X helps.
