I'm not able to reproduce this in git-master.

Can you let us know if you have multiple displays or just one? This seems related to bug 493879, which is also on Arch, but the user has multiple displays. Thanks.

This looks nearly identical to bug 493879 so I'm going to merge this into that one. Please follow that report for updates.
