Public bug reported:
As soon as I set my display to scaled (any percentage) via Settings ->
Displays -> Scale, the background image disappears and become all white.
When I choose a different background image via Settings -> Background
initially nothing happens. As soon as I switch back to 100% scaling, the
image I choose before now appears.
This problem started right after updating to 19.04. No such issues with
either 18.04 or 18.10.
