This looks like the typical Qt HiDPI breakage and needs to be fixed in
Qt. As a temporary workaround, disable scaling for Qt.

Title:
  VLC interface not displayed correctly

Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I use vlc on a Dell E-5530 laptop seated on its docking station.
  The laptop display cover is closed, the output is sent on an external LG TV with 1920x1080.
  This system has been working flawlessly for many years, resp. under late 14.04 and 16.04.
  After recently upgrading to 18.04, I noticed VLC wouldn't display correctly - see attachment.
  This only occurs on the external display ; if I open the cover and use the internal display, there is no problem - except I cannot work on the internal display.
  regards,
  J.-Luc
