There's usually no reason to move around with just the mouse cursor, the closest thing voiceover offers to that is the way you have it set, to have the mouse follow the voiceover cursor. Usually there is no advantage to this, since the voiceover cursor is able to activate items. The one case I've found this useful is on some web sites. Really this is bad web design, but some sites use a feature called mouseover, that is, when the mouse pointer itself is ona certain item, other items are revealed, this only works by putting the mouse on an item, tabbing won't work. Usually, if the mouse follows the voiceover cursor, you will see the new items. Again, this really is not something web developers should use, it's very nonstandard, but some do.
