When it happens again, try unmapping/remapping the window (iconifying
through the window manager or similar) or try to resize it (will send
it a configure notify); that seems to have done the trick when that
happened to me in the past.  Maybe it gives mozilla the kick it needs
to know that its master is watching it. ;)  Apart from that, it could
be the following mozilla bug:
