Apparently this is a common problem. A Google search led me here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20268962/fixed-attachment-background-image-flicker-disappear-in-chrome-when-coupled-with

Basically it boils down to this: Try setting the position: property of the element to static and make sure there are no manually set values to the 'position' property other than 'static'.
