And... spoke too soon. It happens under xrender as well. Shorter freezes, frequency is the same.

If a video is playing the sound will proceed as if normal but the screen will not change. The shape of the mouse will not change. This is with stock ubuntu 18.10 under opengl with nouveau and i915 drivers active (xrandr). I tried using the latest possible ubuntu- compiled kernel, 4.20 with exactly the same results. This did not happen before sometime after the cosmic native initial install. When I change kde to 'xrender' -- the problem disappears.
