I switched over to VLC as my default video player and the problem seemed to be solved; however, It's now doing the same thing whenever I try to launch google chrome. The screen goes black and I end up back at the login screen. It does it in both KDE and XFCE. Has anybody else seen this? 

Haven't see this problem.....

Fully updated F17 running kmod-nvidia-3.6.9-2 and its dependencies.
