Please, keep in mind that I've just recently started using Linux - Ubuntu as my OS, so if you need anything else related to information of PC/System etc..., please ask me and I will update the question with required info.
Thanks in advance!
Problem:
This is one of the scenarios that happens to me and it's pretty much common:
If I open browser (no matter if it's Mozilla or any other browser), but I am currently using Brave browser, and I go on youtube and watch video / play music.
After some time, my laptop which is running Ubuntu 20.04 - (I'll post more detailed info on system later on in this post) - randomly freezes and starts playing sound from that youtube video in a loop
(So, I hear the sound from the video on youtube that was playing, to be more precise, the last 2/3 of a second of that video).
So when that happens laptop becomes completely unresponsive to any key komands and also mouse freezes.
After that happen I have to shut down everything with the Power Off button located on my laptop.
Question: Does anyone know how to solve this problem or why's this happening and is there a way of fixing this?
