How to fix "ERROR:buffer_manager.cc(488)] [.DisplayCompositor]GL ERROR :GL_INVALID_OPERATION : glBufferData:"

Question

Trying to run alias command that should open two tabs in chrome via bash in Ubuntu.

alias mb="google-chrome url; google-chrome url"

After executing the alias, I will get this error message:

[1520:1520:0822/202900.742938:ERROR:sandbox_linux.cc(369)] InitializeSandbox() called with multiple threads in process gpu-process.
[1520:1520:0822/202900.838165:ERROR:buffer_manager.cc(488)] [.DisplayCompositor]GL ERROR :GL_INVALID_OPERATION : glBufferData: <- error from previous GL command

Since this is some kind of gpu problem I tried params:

--disable-gpu
--disable-software-rasterizer

Neither of them worked.

Expected result: two tabs in one browser will open.

Actual result: One tab will open, command will get stuck on error message and second tab will not open. Process has to be killed manually.

In my case, this error did not appear in my .xsession-errors when I started Xorg with

/usr/bin/startx -- -extension GLX
