I'm affected by this bug too and looked at the source and try to fix myself.
The problem is (I think) libVLC's API doesn't provide embedding video output
into wayland sufaces(I only found for X11,OSX and Windows).
In wayland sessions kaffeine runs with the wayland backend and tries to pass
the wayland surface to libVLC(which of course fails) and the result is this
bug.

Possible workround is running kaffeine with "-platform xcb" to force the X11
backend.

As an experiment I made an minimal mpv-backend(which uses OpenGL-surfaces) and
it fixes the bug too.
