I'm also having the same problem. It happens with Totem, VLC, and
MPlayer. It doesn't matter if I play audio or video, the system hangs as
soon as the program is opened. The mouse cursor still moves, but the
system is otherwise unresponsive, even to Ctrl+Alt+Backspace.

This used to happen only once in a while, but now happens consistently
every time since the latest xorg update. I haven't seen it hang if I
disable compiz, so maybe it's an issue with that? I use the intel
(945GM) drivers.
