OK, you are using relatively recent version of both. I don't know what
is the cause (perhaps bad interaction between window manager and
xcrysden). What is the window manager (or desktop environment) you are
using (gnome, xfce, kde)?

Since you are using ubuntu, perhaps you may try to install the
corresponding Debian packages (see the mailing-list email from a few
days ago), i.e.,

wget http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/x/xcrysden/xcrysden_1.5.52-1_amd64.deb 
wget http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/x/xcrysden/xcrysden-data_1.5.52-1_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i xcrysden-data_1.5.52-1_all.deb xcrysden_1.5.52-1_amd64.deb 


I' don't know, but perhaps they may behave differently.
