POP OS crash after switching between workspaces quickly #373

I'm only writing here to document a crash that I'm experiencing with the OS. I hope that this is the proper place to report about it.

The problem is that every now and again, I'll randomly decide to hold down the key combination that tells the OS to switch workspaces either up or down, The OS will try and switch really quickly but the screen will go blank and the operating system will crash. I'm not able to actively replicate this bug but it does happen occasionally. I happen to be using a custom key combination if that is of any significance (alt + r or alt + v).

This only happens when holding the button down and never when tapping the key.

I usually have 4 workspaces open.

I just tried to replicate the bug by creating 7 or 8 workspaces but the system doesn't crash and switches flawlessly even when holding the button down and switching really quickly. The issue might have something to do with OS uptime.

This bug isn't serious and easily avoidable on my part but I wanted to report it.

Was not able to replicate under any scenarios, even over time and with multiple (8+) workspaces open.
