I am having a similar issue on Ubuntu 14.10 x86_64 on 3.16.0-29-generic, but my mouse commands work fine and any keyboard input does not register at all. When this happens I have to close and relaunch most of the time that fixes it but sometime even that doesn't and then i have to go ahead and restart the whole desktop session.
