Bug Description
Description: Ubuntu Eoan Ermine (development branch)
Release: 19.10
My specs:
Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Caicos PRO [Radeon HD 7450]
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q9400 @ 2.66GHz
A flicker occurs with video playback in mpv, gnome-mpv, or VLC on X when the OSD is triggered (a volume change), for example: https:/
This also occurs on 19.04 but with the Adwaita theme enabled instead of Yaru.
This issue does not occur in Wayland.
This issue does not occur if I use the older Yaru theme (in 19.10).
(The Z-shaped tear previously associated with this bug report is fixed by adding TearFree to the radeon Xorg config.)
