This affect me too. /var/log/syslog fills up until my disk runs out of space.
Steps to recreate:
- open a video in VLC
- pause the video
- suspend computer
- un-suspend computer
I see these errors in syslog:

The errors stop after closing VLC.
My .xsession-error file is very short, ~20 lines and several years old.
