[Bug 1665385] [NEW] dragonplayer fails to play video

[Darin Miller]

Public bug reported:

Attempting to play mp3/mp4 video with default Nouveau drivers fails to
render any video. The player resizes to the aspect ratio of the video
and audio is played, but no video.  No change in behavior after
installing kubuntu-restricted-extras.

Installing proprietary NVidia drivers "fixes" the issue.
