Lately, I've been having the same issue. My desktop mouse cursor was
responsive, but the clicks were registering or being detected.
I was able to ssh into this machine when it happened. Doing a top, I
noticed that the load was > 12 ! (Typical load is usually < 2).
Also, there were some ibus related processes hogging up gigabytes of
memory. Bizarre and a little unnerving. I killed a couple of these ibus
related memory hogs, my system came back to normal.
So, I think the mouse clicks not being detected was a side effect of the
system being under such a heavy load that it couldn't respond in a
timely fashion to mouse clicks.
Also, as a side note, I changed my Google Chrome configuration to
disallow running in the background. It also seemed to be using up a
solid gigabyte+ of memory.
I'm going to try to remove ibus and see if the crazy load issue (I
wasn't really actively doing anything to stress the system at the time)
goes away..
