Videos hang / freeze for a few seconds on Ubuntu 18.04

Since the update to 18.04 every YouTube video and also locally played videos hang for a few seconds.
This can be temporarily "solved" by moving the mouse, but then it freezes again as the audio continues unaffected.
How can I fix this problem?

You should post the solution as an answer instead of putting it into question.

to resolve the issue, simply install kernel 4.3.0 and everything works as expected!
copy/paste the following to terminal:
cd /tmp/
wget http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.3-wily/linux-headers-4.3.0-040300-generic_4.3.0-040300.201511020949_amd64.deb
wget http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.3-wily/linux-headers-4.3.0-040300_4.3.0-040300.201511020949_all.deb
wget http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.3-wily/linux-image-4.3.0-040300-generic_4.3.0-040300.201511020949_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
Run these commands and reboot, selecting kernel 4.3 in grub extended settings.
hope this helps, as it did for me.
best regards
