 OK, can you do this please:
 
 1. Exit Xorg.
 
 2. rm -rf ~/.cache/mesa_shader_cache
 
 3. Make sure you have this in ~/.xinitrc or ~/.xsession as the first commands
     there:
 
  	export LANG=es_ES.UTF-8
  	export LC_NUMERIC=C
 
 4. startx
 
 The idea is to create `mesa_shader_cache' with LC_NUMERIC=C. (If the cache has
 already been created with the `es_ES.UTF-8' locale then you'll always get a
 broken UI even with the `env LC_ALL=C pavucontrol' override!)
