Which syscall was blocked? (Watch journalctl --boot --pager-end --follow --grep=SECCOMP while firejail --seccomp --seccomp-error-action=log vlc)

AMD GPU? => Duplicate of #3219

Yep AMD, i came back because i checked it on an intel machine and this error does not appear.

Sorry for duplicate!

audit[1189746]: SECCOMP auid=1000 uid=1000 gid=1000 ses=2 subj=unconfined pid=1189746 comm="vlc" exe="/usr/local/bin/vlc" sig=31 arch=c000003e syscall=312 compat=0 ip=0x7f017c2d289d code=0x0

with broken i mean the application start just fine, but videos are no longer played.

it would be nice if someone could adjust the config file parsing to detect these potential conflicts.
