Strange problem with VLC 3.0.12 on Kubuntu 21.04

A strange problem happened to me with VLC 3.0.12 on Kubuntu 21.04... basically if I go to open a video while it is in use by another program (for example I had opened a video while it was in use from the system settings, because I use a plugin to have the animated wallpaper, while the second time I still opened the same video but this time it was in use by OpenShot) the system crashes completely. Only the pointer stuck on a black background remains and no key combination (for example the classic CTRL + ALT + F2) manages to make me open a text shell from which I can reboot, so I am forced to power off the system from the shutdown key.
Has this ever happened to any of you? Do you know if maybe it's a known bug?
