Public bug reported:
I am using X11 on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and it happens to me that the whole system
freezes when using VLC, after some time of usage.
The freeze happens randomly, not after a fixed amount of time, and sometimes
it's possible to press the Super key and enter into the activity menù and force
the closing of VLC, but most of the time a restar is necessary.

3) I expect to see a video in fullscren and not having my whole system
freezed!
4) The whole system freezes, with audio still going and everything
working, but the fullscreen keep being stuck on the screen, with no
possibility rather than forcing a reboot.
