Did you try to install and run xcompmgr?

No, where is that a requirement?

You desktop system must support translucency and compositing too, which 
requires a
composite manager, such as compiz or xcompmgr.

Qt's tray icon is ugly when compositing is enabled. We will fix it when we find 
a
proper (not_that_hacky) way.
