It sounds like you are experiencing bug 1005677. Try the workaround for that, turning off the overlay scrollbars with an environment variable.
You can run vlc and other commands from a terminal like this:
LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 vlc &
Or you can put
export LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0
in /etc/environment, just until this bug is fixed. If those workarounds do not help, you can un-dupe this bug if you want. Hope this helps. Thanks.
