Neil Widdowson, to advise, this report has nothing to do with nvidia
graphics cards.

Despite this, it will help immensely if you filed a new report with Ubuntu via a terminal:
ubuntu-bug xorg

Please ensure you have the package xdiagnose installed, and that you
click the Yes button for attaching additional debugging information.

Title:
  1002:68e0 With fglrx screen flickering during fullscreen video
  playback

Status in fglrx:
  New
Status in fglrx-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When I adjust the brightness or volume using the keyboard media buttons during full screen video playback, the screen flickers. This happens in both Vlc and the default Videos application. Is there a fix for this? I am using ubuntu 15.04 with ati catalyst 15.20.
  this doesnt happen when i am not using fullscreen playback. its probably associated with the notifications that come up on pressing the volume or brightness buttons.

  WORKAROUND: Use the default radeon driver.
