Bug 313416

Application: kwin (4.9.4)
KDE Platform Version: 4.9.4
Qt Version: 4.8.3
Operating System: Linux 3.5.0-17-generic x86_64
Distribution: Ubuntu 12.10

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:
Every time I watch a flash video and increase the volume, the screen flickers and kwin crashes. I am able to duplicate this almost every time. I may sometime prevent the crash by only increasing the volume slightly seconds at a time.

*** Kwin does not actually crash *** or it may have restarted, if anything, this bug is annoying.
A fresh install of Kubuntu. I reinstalled and the same thing happened.
This happens on a google chrome browser, not chromium, but did not happen before chrome's most recent upgrade.

- Unusual behavior I noticed:
The screen flickers

The crash can be reproduced every time.
