So you:
. start Emacs
. wait for the initial frame to be redrawn after the init files are
processed
. visit a file by typing "C-x b" and selecting a file from a list
And then you see an empty window with the frame's title showing the
file you selected. Is that correct? If so, what do you see on the
mode line as the buffer name?

Which likely means this is some kind of timing issue. Which perhaps
also explains why trace-redisplay stops it from happening: it slows
down redisplay because it needs to output the traces. So we are
looking at some X or GTK event that comes in and somehow interrupts or
prevents redisplay from doing its job, after it evidently started
(because the frame title is updated at the beginning of a redisplay
cycle)? Or maybe it's something that prevents us from swapping the
double-buffering buffers so that the redrawn stuff is actually shown
on the glass?

The echo area is shown in a window, so that seems to be part of not
updating the windows on display.
