Frequent lockups requiring hard shutdown during video playback

Brief summary of the problem:

During playback of videos, whether that be through the browser on youtube or occasionally on mplayer/vlc, I will experience various lockups only fixed by a hard shutdown.

Hardware description:

  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850U
  • GPU: 33:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Rembrandt [1002:1681] (rev d1)
  • System Memory: 32 GiB Micron MT62F2G32D8DR-031 WT, 2105MHz (4 sticks)
  • Display(s): 1

System information:

  • Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS
  • Kernel version: 6.5.0-25-generic
  • Custom kernel: N/A
  • AMD official driver version: xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu 22.0.0-1ubuntu0.2 (i think!)

How to reproduce the issue:

Unfortunately, I've struggled to reproduce it, although I see it happen most often while watching videos through the browser rather than natively through mplayer or vlc.
