Similar issue with nvidia driver 440.82.
However, on my end, the issue appears when vlc is open and reads from an
external mounted drive : suspending the computer then waking up, the
drive is not mounted anymore this is when the /var/log/syslog is written
gigs of those same lines in just minutes.

Occurs without user switching. Not seeing it in syslog as some people
are reporting - for those users, did you disable xsession-errors
somewhere?
Had to work
Accidentally switched while a vlc video was paused, went '$%^&' and
switched back, stopped the video (i.e. the black screen).
On my system, syslog gets so many errors doing that, it grows by roughly
111,652 lines or 20,990,575 bytes per second!

I am here to confirm the same issue. In my case, HOWEVER, minimizing and

Mmm, I think the issue isn't that VLC is buggy, but that it's using the

Oh, I just realized the flow stops when VLC stops when I stop VLC, and
it doesn't appear with other video players, so it's more a VLC problem,
and a workaround is simply to remove VLC and use a non buggy player
instead.

There aren't any problems when vlc is playing audio and displaying cover

acceleration gets in a twist and changing resolution could well do that.
