Bug description:
  Binary package hint: cairo-dock

  After running cairo-dock (with opengl support) in KDE 4.3.2 (Kubuntu
  9.10), it is no longer possible to play videos in kaffeine, dragon
  player, gwenview and smplayer using the "xv" video driver. smplayer
  can still play videos if I switch to "gl" or "gl2" video drivers. I
  can hear the sound and the progress bar moves as if the video was
  playing, but there is no image. With desktop effects on, the area of
  the window where the video should be displayed in these applications
  is shown as a transparent gray rectangle. With desktop effects off, it
  is a solid black rectangle.

  Strangely enough, mplayer and xine can still play videos using the
  "xv" driver if I run them directly, but not if embedded in the above
  mentioned front ends (and others).

  Everything gets back to normal if I log out KDE and then log in again
  without running cairo-dock.

  I have a nvidia 9600GT video card and am running the proprietary
  driver from ubuntu repos.
