I had the same problem. In my case it was caused by
x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-180.35  and changing to a different version
fixed it. Maybe you should check to see if you are using this version,
or try a different version (older/newer)... if you're not using
nvidia-drviers at all, then I have no idea what to say except "good
luck" :)
