The sequence goes...
I start playing a recording and the screen goes dark.  Audio keep
playing (usually) until I hit esc (as with the log below) or I alt-tab
to another window.  At this point the keyboard and mouse are non
responsive and the screen remains black.

The log below is a result of 
mythfrontend -v playback,general,important > mythfrontend.log
