After installing the newer Utopic stack and watching some videos in full screen, the issue hasn't repeated. I believe it's been fixed.
The live disk I used was created a long time ago (hence the 14.05.1 version) which is the reason why newer updates hadn't been installed. However, the updater never notified me that there were potential updates. Should I expect necessary updates like this in the future? Thank you for your help.
