Help SOLVED: Android 5.0.1 bug - black home screen

I just upgraded my Nexus 7 (2013) to Android 5.0.1.

After I open an app, if I press the Home button, it exits the app, but the home screen is black. The Back, Home, and Overview buttons are still visible, but they are not functional. The notifications bar at the top is also visible, but not functional.

The only way to fix it is to power off the device.

Anybody else experiencing this?

Thanks
