Public bug reported:

When I was using the opensource amdgpu driver, vlc and other things
worked fine. But this AMD GPU Radeon PRO driver doesn't seem to work
well.

Can't open Steam, Firefox will sometimes let me play Twitch and YouTube
at the same time. But Twitch regularly crashes and have to reload the
stream, sometimes it crashes Firefox completely.

Tired of this. Going to uninstall the PRO driver and move back to the 
opensource amdgpu driver. Didn't have any of these problems with it. 

Why did I install the PRO driver? OpenCL. I've been successfully using
some OpenCL stuff with the PRO driver that does not work with the
opensource driver. Seems like I can either do OpenCL stuff or have a
stable system. I've been using the PRO for a few months now and I'm
tired of the instability.
