Answering the first half of your question How can I identify what produces this empty window, with the window open, open the Terminal and type xlsclients:
dell bamfdaemon
dell ibus-ui-gtk3
dell ibus-x11
dell unity-settings-daemon
dell unity-panel-service
dell indicator-printers-service
dell indicator-keyboard-service
dell unity-fallback-mount-helper
dell polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1
dell nm-applet
dell gnome-software
dell nautilus
dell compiz
dell telepathy-indicator
dell gnome-terminal-server
dell update-notifier
dell notify-osd
dell hud-service
dell google-chrome-stable
dell conky
Then close the window and run xlsclients again. The process running the window will be the one(s) on the first list but not on the second.
Finding the process name is the first step to stopping it.
HTH.
