Can you explain this again, please?  Draw a diagram if it helps.  But I've
been using Xinerama for instance for yonks and not had this problem you're
describing.

Are you saying that:

* If you have a window which is wholly on VGA-0 that moving the mouse into
  monitor doesn't focus a window under the pointer?
* That it only works if a window spans both monitors?

I'm dubious about this to be honest.

This is unacceptable.  Please get a *minimal* config which shows your
problem.  I suspect it to be only about three lines if it's what I'm
assuming the problem will be, but I am not about to second-guess.
