Currently it's assigned as an ati-driver issue, but like you seems curious that it also happens with other video (nvidia) which makes me think it's related somehow to whatever was introduced by F22 by kde... I've tried GNOME and LXQt and no problems with either of them - but I'm not the expert in this so I'm deferring to greater minds than me.  ;-)

Well, for me at least, the killall plasmashell ; plasmashell is only meaningful when the entries on my systray disappear or when the background images go to black.  When my system hits the "freeze" no keyboard input is possible.
