I am just guessing here, since I don't know what the problem is.

What happens if you comment or remove this line? This is the only
line in your configuration file that seems to have something to do with
the error you are seeing.
Ed's suggestion is also good, though you already know that the issue is
with your configuration file, since everything is OK when you don't use
it.
Is it possible that some of the other properties you set are no longer
valid, or have different options or effects than you have been using?
Long shot, since XFCE should put an error in journalctl when you try to
start the desktop if that is true.
What happens if you boot to multiuser, and start XFCE manually from a
virtual console (other than tty1)? Does it show any errors in the
console?
startxfce4
Thanks for all the responses.
1. Changing "use_compositing" to "false" makes the problem go away.
2. a new user does not have this problem.
3. The new user xfwm4 has Use_compositing set to "true" !!!
4. starting xfce4 from tty3 has the problem, and only shows an error on
the console about screensaver authorization.
So why does xfce4 work with compositing set to true for a new user, but
not for me ?

And if I delete ~/.config/xfce4 completely, there's no problem.
But, if I log out, then restart - BOOM.
Very puzzled.
