gnome-session: Fatal IO error 11 when playing videos

[Noel Arzola]

When playing or attempting to play a video file on 12.04 up to date with updates the screen goes black and logs you out. I'm assuming this is either a session crash or a forced logout.

Apps tested: VLC, Totem
File types: AVI, MKV, 3GP, MP4, FLV

Checking syslog I'm finding this:
gnome-session[3113]: Gdk-WARNING: gnome-session: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server :0.#012

Replication:
Navigate to a video file via nautilus or lenses
Click/Double click on the file accordingly
The default app or app selected will start
As soon as video file kicks in to play screen goes blank
You are presented with the login screen
