Bug Description
Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.22
I am not sure if it is kernel problem but it seems so.
I had this two times in Gutsy. After some time the desktop and keyboard freezes while the mouse is still move able but nothing reacts to clicks. Another interesting point is that the first time an audio file runs along without problems in totem until it finished and the second time a video in vlc window. I could watch it normally except that I had no influence.
The only keys that are still working are acpi ones like brightness (which calls sonybright acpi scripts) and the hibernate button. The laptop really went down to sleep without problems and resumes fine but it was still not possible to do anything. The video runs along too after resume except the audio but this is a general gutsy problem (under normal circumstances I had to restart the video program to get sound again).
I have a Sony TX2 Laptop with Gutsy and the latest updates. I am using compiz and the i810 driver because of the intel xv problem. I have heard in #ubuntu+1 that I am not the only one with this problem so it doesn't seem to be only hardware specific.

Could you try disabling desktop effects (compiz) and reporting if this problems still exist?
From dmesg, it doesn't look like a kernel problem. Does your numlock light blink?
