Youtube fullscreen playback freeze in html5 using bumblebee

When playing videos in Youtube the image often freezes and starts to refresh only upon moving my mouse while the sound remains OK.

I have a GeForce GT 720M GPU along with Intel HD running on bumblebee/nvidia.

I am still trying to figure out if it's a driver- or e.g. browser-related issue.

I was having the exact same issue you described.

I resolved the issue by installing the linux-lts package.

While trying to capture a video of the problem with ffmpeg, I noticed that what was displayed on my screen was choppy and laggy, but for some reason the captured video didn't exhibit the same problem.

I noticed that after the recent kernel update the issue appears to have been solved.
