Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 16.04.1, 64bit, desktop. All packages up to date.

Played back a movie with VLC.

At a random point VLC was stuck decoding the video and repeated a short
sequence of frames indefinitely. There were no decoding artifacts.
Subtitle continued to play back, but the audio completely stopped. Mouse
was moving, desktop was functional.

Might worth mentioning: The problem is more frequent while copying files
over the network to an external disk drive connected via USB 2.0.
Problem frequency seems to increase with additional CPU, USB 2.0 or
network side-load. I don't know which one, it might not be related at
all.

(Yesterday I had a similar problem with radeon errors logged into syslog, like 
this former bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1574130
In that case the desktop and the video ended up completely frozen, but I could 
log in to the machine.)
