Lock screen flicker



Has anyone noticed the lock screen flickering while streaming youtube content? I seam to get it when ever I have the youtube app running in the background with it streaming to either a blu-ray player or a chromecast. I have had this issue both on Kitkat and Lollipop while using the swipe to unlock lock screen. The only app I have open while while screen casting is the Kindle app. Both the basic Kindle app and the Kindle for Samsung cause this issue. Can someone see if they can reproduce this is really starting to annoy me and I would like to see if I can figure it out. Below are the things I know that are needed to reproduce the issue.

1. Set lock screen to swipe to unlock. Have date and time display option selected as well as quick access options for phone and camera set.
2. Open the youtube app and start casting the video to a tv.
3. Hit the home button and then open the Kindle app. Or if you have already opened the Kindle app you can change to it from the open task menu.
4. Begin reading a book of your choice in the Kindle app.
5. Press the power button to turn the screen off.
6. Wait at least 5 seconds to ensure your video from youtube is still being cast.
7. Press either the power or the home button to turn the screen on.

If you have the same issue that I am having the lock screen should flicker between asking you to unlock and the Kindle app. This should repeat every couple seconds pausing between each screen with no visual animations on either screen. You will be able to turn pages in the Kindle app but not unlock the screen as it changes. To stop the flicker, pause the youtube video from the lock screen when it is up and the phone should return to normal and can be unlocked by swiping.

If anyone knows what might be causing this in open to suggestions. This same issue should be reproducible from a fresh install since I have not tried any of the temp root options that have been released prior to updating to Lollipop. No scripts have been run either to disable or block any apps from running so I highly doubt it's from something being disabled unless it's done from the app launcher.
