A possibly related recent topic:

Top bar disappears or loses transparency randomly

I also have a similar problem to yours. From a fresh install from ISO the top latte panel's translucency is erratic. This happens on 1 physical machine and 1 VM, but very very very rarely happens on my primary machine (thank god). I believe this has something to do with inconsistencies in latte's features. Now how do I paste a picture again so I don't get fired at by doing it the wrong way.... ha, funny, I didn't find anything searching the forums nor the wiki, I must be looking in the wrong pl…

There are good suggestions to tweak relevant parameters.
As for why it happens, the only possibility is to find a “repetitiveness” and open a bug, as also suggested in the linked post…

PS1: please include your garuda-inxi between

for raw look / readability.
PS2: I suggest shortest titles and some descriptive text in addition to the inxi (see topic template)

Thanks! fixed it. And yes! I'll keep that in mind next time.
