Interesting: On my system (15.04, updated, nVidia-346-updates, EVGA GTX 780) I get this warning "EGL is not supported by all OpenGL drivers. If not supported the Compositor will be disabled." when I attempt to select EGL, and indeed if selected - I lose desktop effects.
EDIT: EGL is not supported by nVidia's implementation of OpenGL.Last edited by oshunluvr; May 08, 2015, 06:43 AM.

I've done a bit more reading and it seems EGL is supported, but not within X11. Wayland or Mir it works. It's kinda a complicated issue and I'm not taking the time to dig deeper. GLX w/OpenGL 3.1 works fine here.

Hmmm....That's not how that is acting here. It's on all desktops but subsequent window, i.e. Dolphin, GIMP, etc. all are on top of it. No interference from it.
EDIT: here is all that is said from the Conky site:
Override windows are not under the control of the window manager

Well, I played around some more and found what it does do that would interfere with the Wallpaper. I didn't notice because of how I have my wallpaper currently to keep the background behind Conky Dark. With Override Conky appears to not allow Transparency. So, if your wallpaper covers the entire desktop, Conky will have a black background that covers the portion of wallpaper it resides. No biggie at the moment for me due to current wallpaper, but.... well enough said. For now I'm OK and not annoyed with the disappearing/reappearing act.

Funny, I have full transparency and no disappearing. My window settings within conky are:
Code:[FONT=Ubuntu Mono]# Window specifications #[/FONT] own_window_class Conky own_window yes own_window_type conky own_window_type override own_window_transparent yes own_window_hints undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager own_window_argb_visual yes
