Same issue here. I've found that it happens often (60% of the time) when I open a new tab in chrome or chromium and start typing in the url bar. As I'm typing it will then freeze. All screen output except for mouse is frozen - I can still move my mouse.
Sometimes the screen will freeze and if I wait for 20 seconds or so (haven't actually timed) the screen will flash black and resume.
This issue used to happen maybe twice a week but as of the past few days it has happened at a rate of every 30-60 minutes or so of active use. Sometimes it freezes 20 seconds after start up and sometimes it can run for a few hours first.
I am going to try completely clearing out my browsing history - if I recall correctly chrome does not ever clear the history/trim it and it could potentially be causing the hang up.
I am running a dell latitude e5520.
