Same as #1315.

If you cannot provide any deeper analysis this must be closed as worksforme as well. I was unable to reproduce the problem even using a special debug version of JOSM.

The seems a special problem related to GTK and you Ubuntu version.

Unfortunately I cannot provide any deeper analysis. It seems to be indeed the same effect as in #1315, I used the "GTK+" setting as well. After changing to "Metal" or "CDE" the error did not occur anymore. I therefore close the bug as "worksforme" as proposed.
