Well, something similar is happening to me when I use evince with the
mozilla plugin for reading PDFs on chromium and that I click on the
PDF viewer (scrolling is fine), but it's too much of an edge case for me
 to report it as a bug. (awesome completely hangs and I need to go to
a tty to HUP awesome)

In any case, you should HUP awesome instead of rebooting your machine,
at least as a temporary measure. I think "pkill -HUP awesome" works,
but I've always done it through htop so I'm not sure.

Camusensei
