Try: login as a new user, make sure member of the "video" group. Or
backup then remove the vlc config dir.
"apt purge vlc" works also..less typing 'dpkg" removes one package,
has
to have the .deb file extension.
I'd say go with greg's approach.
- Create a brand new user and try VLC under them.
- Re-install vlc with the (--force?) option, so apt completely overwrites
everything.
