Mysterious problem with selection and copying

Like in the image, sometimes when I open the Gimp the tool icons are scaled huge and icons on bottom of Layers-dock are distorted like this. I know for sure that I'm not pressing any shortkeys, etc. while opening.

I might be paranoid but it feels like this happens more often when Gimp is not yet running and I open xcf-file from file browser and or open freshly taken screenshot. (I've set the screenshots to open in Gimp right after captured.) It feels like it happens more rarely when I just start Gimp from the desktop.

Just like the selection problem, this has happened to me only in Manjaro OS, never in Linux Mint or Windows. I'm starting to wonder if my Manjaro installation is somehow screwed up or are all these symptoms of mismatch between Manjaro and Gimp.

I wonder I have two versions installed, that each use a different user profile. A good way to tell if to look at Edit > Preferences > Folders  > Scripts
and note down the two pairs of folders, when you have the big icons and when you have the small ones, and see if they are identical.
