Delay while entering and exiting full-screen games

I've been having this problem since upgrading to Windows 8 (fresh install) and never had the issue while using Windows 7 where switching between desktop and full-screen games was almost instantaneous. I get this delay when I exit and enter full screen games. It's happened all of them so far, including Left 4 Dead 2, World of Warcraft, Sid Meier's Civilization 5 and Magic The Gathering 2013.

Here's a video that shows what's happening:

Windows 8 compatibility obviously, just have to wait for updates, or run the games in compatibility mode for 7.
