Screen flashes black when launching video apps

Hi everyone,

I need some help getting a diagnostic of a problem I have.

I am using: xorg+catalyst+openbox

When I launch a video (with mplayer or vlc for example) or when a guest OS is booted in virtualbox, the screen flashes and becomes black for half a second before coming back again.

So far, this has led to no crashes or anything really unpleasant, but it would be nice to fix it if possible.

Here is my xorg.conf in case it could be useful. http://pastebin.com/m2137bab7
It was generated via hwd and aticonfig

I would appreciate any help you could give me.

Thanks a lot for your time
