It seems that the Android Emulator is somehow conflicting with the NVidia Web driver on Mac OS. I had the latest NVidia Web driver (378.05.05.25f04) installed and I was having this same problem - the white screen whenever I used Desktop Native rendering (or left it at the automatic default which selects that as well).

I tried the Swift Shader as well, it works but the performance is abysmal!

On a hunch, I switched back to the OS X Default Graphic Driver from the Nvidia Pref Pane in Apple menu settings, and the Desktop Native driver is now working great after the computer restart!
