Linux applications running in a Crostini container crash and are not recoverable untill reboot

Reported by richardw...@live.nl, Jul 1 
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS x86_64 10820.0.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/69.0.3473.0 Safari/537.36
Platform: 10820.0.0 (Official Build) dev-channel eve

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Start a Linux application
2. Use the application
3. Wait for it to crash

What is the expected behavior?
The expected behaviour is that the application works as it should, without crashing all the time.

What went wrong?
I use all different kind of IDEs, preferably from JetBrains, including Android Studio. These applications used to have a lot of screen flickering. The latest update fixed this flicking, but added something way worse: My IDEs crash all of the time.

It happens the most when searching through my whole project (double shift in Android Studio). It also happens a lot when the IDE wants to give my autocomplete suggestions.

After a program crashes, I can't start it back up. I have to reboot my Pixelbook before I can start it up again.

Did this work before? Yes 69.0.3464.0

Chrome version: 69.0.3473.0  Channel: dev
OS Version: 10820.0.0
Flash Version: 30.0.0.127

This behaviour makes Chrome OS unusable for developers! We need a fix as soon as possible!

Same here with VSCode.
It's so frustrating.

I find that it sometimes, not always, rectifies the situation to do the following:

Close all spinning, non-opening app icons on the shelf
Open a new Crosh shell and enter:

vmc stop termina
vmc start termina

Open Terminal app
Open whatever other Linux apps you want

The crashes with tooltips should be resolved on the next termina component push.

Failing to recover after a crash is tracked in  issue 835035 .

In the meantime, would disabling tooltips prevent these crashes?
