I edited the description as the crash occurs whenever switching back to
the vty containing the video player. I have just tried running
gstreamer-properties to change the default video output sink and it is
the same no matter the setting - the application crashes with the same
error message as in the original description.

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
- Whenever I switch away from the vty showing a video with Xvideo that app
- crashes. If the app is minimised then the playback is uninterrupted.
- This behaviour is consistent across all apps that show XVideo output -
- vlc, totem, miro. That's why I'm, filing this bug under Xorg.

  I'm running karmic on a amd64 machine, xorg version is 1:.4+3ubuntu7 and
  the graphics driver is nvidia's 185 series blob.
  
  I did a gdb session with totem. It spawns 7 threads. When I switch to
  another virtual terminal an error appears and all threads exit as does
  totem with the exit code 01. Here's the error:
  
  The program 'totem' received an X Window System error.
  This probably reflects a bug in the program.
  The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.

-   (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
-    that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
-    To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
-    option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
-    backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
