I've seen this problem as well, particularly on intel graphics hardware 
but I don't have enough data to be sure if that's the cause.

Anyway, what seems to have helped is disabling the accessibility 
settings applet.  It would be helpful if you could try this out and 
report whether this helps for you:

gsettings set org.cinnamon.settings-daemon.plugins.a11y-settings active 
false

This will disable the plugin.  After that, you would need to logout and 
back in enough times to verify that it actually helped.  Could you do 
that?

Thanks!
