It's been going on for many months, but I've finally decided to ask if anyone know's how to fix it? It's annoying

Answer 1

The only differences that I have (on a debian box), are:
own_window yes
own_window_type override
own_window_transparent yes
own_window_hints undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager
You could experiment with those...
