There was an error in firefox that sounds a lot like this.  It was
because of gcc6, which uses a new standard for c++.  That new standard
breaks some code that used to be legitimate.  Whenever I would play
movies, until they got it fixed, they would do this randomly.  Perhaps
that is the cause of this behavior you are seeing.
