Neil Widdowson, to advise, this report has nothing to do with nvidia graphics cards.
Despite this, it will help immensely if you filed a new report with Ubuntu via a terminal: ubuntu-bug xorg Please ensure you have the package xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes button for attaching additional debugging information.

This happens in both Vlc and the default Videos application. Is there a fix for this? I am using ubuntu 15.04 with ati catalyst 15.20. this doesnt happen when i am not using fullscreen playback. its probably associated with the notifications that come up on pressing the volume or brightness buttons. WORKAROUND: Use the default radeon driver.
