Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 18.04.04

VA-API fails to load, leading to hardware acceleration not working in chromium
This causes applications using the engine to become extremely laggy and utilise 
90% + CPU.

This is a VERY common use case for ubuntu users and needs to be patched
as a priority IMO

Appears to have been inherited from Disco and is the same bug or similar as 
here:
