Exiting BtS messes up the video signal?

Noticed this very weird behaviour when I first time started playing on my newer computer. Every time I "Exit to Desktop" my monitor gets confused whether it's supposed to be getting analog or digital signal (it constantly changes between both even though there isn't even an analog device connected). After I turn the monitor off and put it on again everything is normal, and during the game everything is normal (even alt-tabbing to desktop). BtS is only program causing this.

If (or as) it's important my monitor is Viewsonic VX2025wm and my GPU is Sapphire X1950XT 256MB. I'll need to check if my GPU drivers are up to date (they're definetaly not older than couple of months).
 
Looks like my drivers are a bit older than I expected. I'll update them later and let you know if the weird behaviour goes away.

Also noticed that the signal doesn't act all funky if there is another program open when exiting BtS (I had Paint open for some dotmapping and everything was normal during exit).

EDIT: On a quick test it seems that updating the video drivers fixed this behaviour so most probably not a bug.
