That is odd.  I have the same settings (including single-window mode, with my window carefully sized/placed to fill the whole screen because there's a bug with maximized window status) and have yet to encounter the problem.

Hmm ... I have an idea what could be responsible (though exactly why fails me), so try these steps:

1 - Size your GIMP window as desired.
2 - Go to the "Window Management" section of Preferences and hit the button for "Save Window Positions Now".
3 - Restart GIMP and see if the behavior persists.
