sorry, i'm afraid i can't. i don't have gnome installed, nor want to
have it :) and i don't even know if exwm (the emacs window manager,
which is the only one with which alpha-background is not working) can
run inside gnome shell.
compton and picom work well with most non-desktop window managers
(e.g. xmonad, or even exwm when not trying alpha-background), and in
fact xmonad+picom+emacs with alpha-background work well too, so i think
that picom is a compositor "that is known to work".
cheers,
jao
