Move the cursor on that annoying background, (start typing input, and
type C-b to move back), and the customize the face under the cursor:
M-x customize-face RET RET

If after typing the first RET it shows as default face 'all', then it
means that no specific face is used, so the gray background may come
from the window:

M-x set-background-color RET white RET ; or black
