After recent updates (both distro and Chromium from your ppa) I'm seeing choppy playback with HW acceleration enabled.
Here's the output while trying to play Youtube vid:

Disabling HW accel via about:flags helps.
My hardware is an HP Envy with AMD Ryzen 2500U and Vega 8 GPU running KDE Neon 18.04 with HWE stack:
