Submenu artifacts. Radeon RX 580 + Plasma + amdgpu

Hello all,

I have continuing issues with display artifacts from drop down menus.
Across all applications.

Photo showing behavior: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hc7if1kjguwa4rn/IMG_3461.JPG?dl=0
-> twitching mouse to other drop downs and back generally clears issue
-> happens consistently from boot through many days of work uptime

Observation: no artifacts present when running Kubuntu 17.04 (Live)

Suggestions are most appreciated.

Having used various Linux distributions for 15+ yrs, this setup with OS
42.3 and Plasma is very compatible with my productivity and engineering
software (including VMware WS-Pro). A real pleasure to use.
