This refers to gtk-play binary from gst-player:
https://github.com/sdroege/gst-player. As can be seen from the gstreamer bug,
the issue is not limited to gst-player (but it is a very easy 100% reproducer,
playing any audio file will trigger it).

The relevant debugging is in comment 20 of the gstreamer bug:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=767712#c20 :

This is exactly what happens with the gst-player visualization as well.


Also, everything seems to work fine on non-skylake hardware: only the
combination of skylake, xv and xf86-video-intel seems to trigger this.
