the plasma output is harmless.
you don't have to install compiz, but since you mentioned it wouldn't occur on
other DEs and afaik only compiz & e17 can do GL compositing (being a
requirement to trigger this clash between cairo-dock and Qt) i just was
guessing you used compiz (since it's more common)

So, what other DE did you try to trigger this conflict then (w/o issues) since
if you were not (GL) compositing and therefore likely not running the docker
(at least not in an ARGB mode), there'd be obviously no clash ...

However, i just googled and it seems cairo-dock triggers ARGB windows bypassing
Qt (and everything else), try (with running cairo-dock) launching an offended
application like
XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 konqueror

since you'd ahve to add this for all applications you could also export it in
~/.xprofile and unset the variable for cairo dock and some applications that
require it (like plasma-desktop)
XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS="" plasma-desktop

... or you try another docker ;-)
