I don't use Firefox as my standard browser, so I didn't notice it myself. When other people use my computer, they have to use firefox, as I don't want them to use 'my' browser (chromium). It only seems to happen when Firefox is in use and I've seen it happening. It's quite annoying. Screen freezes for ~30 sec or even longer. Only sysreq-keystrokes still work. Cannot find anything in logs (or maybe I haven't checked the right logs). I am not entirely sure, but in all cases an instance of Libre Office had been used as well, which is also something I never do (use gedit or google docs...). But I haven't been able to recreate the problem. It seems completely random...
