Using Adwaita, many widgets are drawn with a solid black background

This bug is still there with current Adwaita theme on Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal Quetzal.
On my test machine there is a installation of gnome-shell from standard packages.

Some GtkLabels, GtkDrawingAreas or Notebook backgrounds seem to be affected.
Please see attached screenshot.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Removing overlay-scrollbar fixes the issue for me.

Removing overlay-scrollbar works for me too. I'm not sure if merely disabling (rather than removing) the overlay scrollbar also fixes this.

Update: disabling it solves the issue too:
"gsettings set com.canonical.desktop.interface scrollbar-mode normal"

Is there a way to have both Adwaita and overlay-scrollbars?

Still not fixed in Ubuntu 12.10. Is patch not applied yet in Ubuntu or is it applied but it doesn't work?

the gtk issue is fixed in the current version, closing that side of the bug

I still have this bug (Ubuntu 13.04)
When I open gnome-control-center from the user menu (top right in Gnome Shell), and open any widget from it, the widget's background is black. When I open the same widget from the command line, all looks well.
When I disable overlay scrollbars with gsettings (as in #8 above), the widgets look fine as well. Setting the overlay scrollbar mode back go 'overlay-auto', the widgets have black backgrounds again.
Changing themes makes no difference. I don't use Adwaita anyway.

Should I report a new bug?

Looks like this bug isn't fully fixed. Don't report a new bug. Better bring all of your friends and tell them to click "affects me too" ;)

Here is more scary one. This one happens with Marlin file browser. Removing overlay scrollbar fixes this issue too.

Also affects Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander) development branch with gedit. I'm using the LXDE Desktop Environment.

I use ubuntu 13.04 whith gnome shell and adwaita theme and I affected with this problem. I resolve use this command in a terminal

gsettings set com.canonical.desktop.interface scrollbar-mode normal

for Disable overlay scrollbars in Ubuntu 13.04

Hi guys, any update on this? I still have this issue in 13.10.

This problem happens not only with the adwaita theme. Almost every recent theme I get has this problem with the overlay scrollbar.
Also tested with Ubuntu 14.04.

Still here in Ubuntu 14.04.. all the themes i have are having this bug.
Any fix?

I am also seeing this bug in Ubuntu 14.04.

I confirm this bug in Ubuntu 14.04. Disabling the hidden scrollbars still fixes the issue, but it's not a solution.

Adding this to gtk-widgets.css will "fix" it for Numix and whatever other themes are spawned from it:

GtkWindow {
    color: @fg_color;
    background-color: @bg_color;
}
GtkPaned {
    background-color: @bg_color;
}
GtkEventBox {
    background-color: @bg_color;
}

However, this workaround does not work for Zukitwo, for example. Disabling overlay scrollbars most certainly is not "a solution".

Disabling scrollbars do not help, I face the issue with certain themes like Moka and Orchis.

Are these bugs also address the same problem?

2) https://bugs.launchpad.net/overlay-scrollbar/+bug/1367764

I have a similar issue using Adwaita default theme in Gnome 3.14, but what is being drawn with a black solid background is the application system bar in some applications (firefox, pidgin, playonlinux, etc. See attached).
Is It the same bug?

Graybird shows this issue but its authors don't want to merge a workaround since it's not their theme's bug:
