Weather plugin animation transition becomes erratic with YouTube

Hi. I have Debian sid installed (amd64) with Xfce 4.18.

If I have a YouTube page up in one of the browser tabs (Chromium) and it's playing audio, the animation transition in the Xfce weather plugin becomes erratic/jumpy. If I stop the YouTube audio, or minimize the browser with YouTube still playing, the animation transition becomes smooth again.

I have also switched the display resolution from 1920x1080, to 1680x1050 and 1600x900, with no change in this behavior.

Could there possibly be an explanation for this and is there a way to correct it?

System specs:

CPU: AMD Athlon II x2 260 (dual-core) 3.2GHz
Memory: 8 Gib RAM (maxed out)
GPU: AMD Radeon 3000 (RS-780L) 256 Mib (integrated, shared memory)
Audio: Creative SoundBlaster Audigy Fx (PCI-Express x1)

Thanks in advance.
