XFCE + Compiz compositing issues

Hi,

I'm using XFCE without display manager and I start it by using the command "startxfce4". Instead of using Xfwm, I'm running Compiz for window decorations, window centering and compositing. In the configuration of CCSM I've replaced Xfwm by the string "emerald --replace" as window decorator (which works fine).

What I'm wondering is: does this completely "disable" Xfwm or is it just replaced during the booting of XFCE? For I've got some applications using transparency (Guake) and compositing (Docky) which experience minor issues with regards to transparency and compositing some of the time, not always. Could this be caused by a "late" replacement of Xfwm by Compiz/Emerald?

If so, how can I fix this? Could anyone explain this to me?

Thanks in advance!
