Describe the bug
In Expo view only the currently active workspace thumbnail is updated / animated. Any inactive workspace thumbnails are 'frozen'
To Reproduce
Open an application with a window that will show activity for sometime - e.g. a video in browser/xplayer or a terminal running find / *
Go to expo view, observe that the thumbnail for the active workspace shows the window updating in realtime. Switch to another workspace and immediately return to expo. Observe the original workspace thumbnail is frozen.
''Stack trace''
If you are reporting a crash. Go to "Software Sources" and enable the debug symbols. Then go to "System Reports" and extract the stack trace for your crash and paste it here.
''Dmesg''
If you type dmesg in a terminal, you should see a line corresponding to the crash. Paste it here.
