This also happens with NVIDIA drivers. I'm on Vivid fully updated and
using the 340 series drivers.

I tried using the SumatraPDF and tooltips don't dissapear completely and
in my case they also flash. However if I select text in the opened .pdf
or move my cursor over link in the webbrowser or this comment field the
tooltips dissapear so in my case it isn't permament.

Title:
  Wine tooltips don't disappear entirely from screen

Status in Compiz:
  Triaged
Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  This bug does not happen with Unity 2D or Gnome-Shell. Same problem on
  both Oneiric and Precise (up-to-date).

  When a tooltip from a Wine app disappear, its shadow remains. This can 
quickly leads to an unusable window.
  To clean these shadows, I have to move the window.

  I confirmed this bug with Mathcad 14, GeNIe and some others not-known
  apps. It does not happen, for example, with VLC or Steam.

  If you want to test with something free and lightweight, you can try
  with Sumatra: http://blog.kowalczyk.info/software/sumatrapdf/download-
  free-pdf-viewer.html

  
  Attached is a picture of a rather extreme case (made with a non-free app).
