I got similar errors here mostly with skype and keepassx. I guess we're not alone http://askubuntu.com/questions/693588/some-applications-become-garbled-and-unusable

This happens only if Android Studio is running at the same time (Version 1.4, JDK 1.7.0_79). If I close Ansroid Studio (almost) everything is fine again. (Well almost, as there's also a problem with Qt4 command link buttons and HiDPI displays, but that's another story.) The applies for file dialogs in chromium (it uses kde4 libs, I suppose?). When AS is running, the file dialogs will be unusable, if I close it all is good. I haven't tested it with other Java based applications yet, so it might just be the JDK. (It's the Oracle one, I think, or whatever Google makes you download.)
