Check the apps to see if they take a "withdrawn" or "slit" switch
(in my experience most likely -w for blackbox-compatible apps).

Also, in my experience, you shouldn't need to background Fluxbox
(unless you're calling this from a display manager?) since it
appears to be the last app in your ~/.xinitrc ...

I could be wrong, but that's how an app is similarly configured
here on blackbox.
