Video example.

GNOME version 3.18.2
Gallium 0.4 on AMD HAWAII (DRM 2.43.0, LLVM 3.7.1)
Kernel 4.4.5

This seems to be related to the ~.config/monitors.xml file, as removing it fixes the issue until re-configuring monitors and rebooting.

(Sorry if this went to the completely wrong people to look at or there is info missing, I don't submit bug reports often.)
