A 100px by 100px white box appears above everything else on every space that a Firefox window is open on. I suspect that this is a result of a Core Animation bug, but I'm not sure. I am running Flash Player 10.1b3 and I did have SWFs running in the background when I put it to sleep. Clicking on the box brings Minefield's menu bar to the foreground, which is why I believe it's a bug in Firefox. In addition, closing Firefox results in the box disappearing.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open up Firefox
2. Browse to a site with SWFs on it
3. Close lid of macbook
4. Open lid
Actual Results:  
White box shows up

Expected Results:  
No white box should show up
