FWIW:

14.04.3 x32, vlc 2.2.1:
Using "Reset Preferences" in VLC recreates the problem. This would indicate that the default config exhibits it.
And indeed, I initially hit the problem for the very first time after upgrading my machine from Ubuntu 12.04.x LTS to 14.04.3 LTS.

The fix suggested above (output module -> ALSA, Device -> PulseAudio Sound Server) still works.
