Hello.
Similar issue here: Archlinux x86_64, awesome-git with background managed by awesome. I'm currently on commit cf08a3b7, but 2efd2c84 seemed work fine.
Here what I see in my case:
The gkrellm on the screenshot has transparent background and updates it every second, but the other parts of the screen are updated only if I open a window on full screen.
Today I upgraded from 8bd4132 to cf08a3b and noticed this issue. So I rolled back to 7d0f2da based on 5baec46 mentioned by ortango. Yes, the issue with the root window not redrawing is fixed, but the issue in the video (vgit-92105) started bothering me, the issue started happening in 9210536, and seems to be fixed in commits after 7d0f2da... so now I'm stuck on 3cd107a.

Sorry this is because of an oversight of me. Should be fixed now.

Configuration file
``` backend = glx; ```Steps of reproduction
Expected behavior
damage is added on that root window and redrawn with the new pixmap
Current Behavior
root window is only updated under windows
Stack trace
OpenGL trace
I'll add a trace, or a chunk of one, if it would be helpful.
Other details
since 5baec46, when using the v2_renderer the root window image is not updated when it is changed (except under any windows present).
I am using
setroot
(usesXSetWindowBackgroundPixmap
) to change background colors. That commit doesn't have v2 renderer enabled so,PICOM_DEBUG="v2_renderer" picom --conf /dev/null --backend glx
following is a video how how the issue presents while changing background color at an interval.
