[Solved] XFCE4 Text gets invisible

Hi there!
I've faced with very strange issue. After some time of running (or resuming from suspend?) text on all GTK2 elements becomes invisible.

I've found somewhere here that it's cairo issue, but I don't see any major updates

[2016-01-23 15:45] [ALPM] removed python-cairo (1.10.0-6)
[2016-01-23 16:03] [ALPM] installed python-cairo (1.10.0-6)
[2016-01-23 16:30] [ALPM] removed python-cairo (1.10.0-6)
[2016-01-23 17:07] [PACMAN] Running 'pacman --color auto -S --asdeps --needed extra/python-cairo extra/intltool community/cython'
[2016-01-23 17:07] [ALPM] installed python-cairo (1.10.0-6)
[2016-01-23 17:09] [ALPM] removed python-cairo (1.10.0-6)
[2016-01-23 19:20] [ALPM] installed python-cairo (1.10.0-6)
[2016-02-04 06:05] [ALPM] upgraded lib32-cairo (1.14.6-1 -> 1.14.6-2)
[2016-03-21 20:12] [PACMAN] Running 'pacman -U https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/c/cairo/cairo-1.12.16-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz'
[2016-03-21 20:13] [ALPM] downgraded cairo (1.14.6-1 -> 1.12.16-3)
[2016-03-21 20:14] [ALPM] upgraded cairo (1.12.16-3 -> 1.14.6-1)

As you can see in the log, I've tried to downgrade cairo with no luck.
Restarting X fixes the issue.
Any ideas what's going on are highly appreciated!

You can also try https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xf86-video-intel-git It worked for someone else in a related thread, if that's the issue
