Public bug reported:
As of booting my 16.04 laptop this morning (first restart after unity
updates were installed on 2016-09-14), the mouse cursor fails to
interact properly with Unity shell elements whenever my USB mouse is
plugged in and turned on.
Tech specs: my system is a ThinkPad T420 which I usually use with an
external Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic USB keyboard/mouse pair.
If the mouse is turned off, and I use my touchpad, all is fine with the
cursor/shell interactions. However, if the USB mouse is on, then no
matter whether I use mouse or touchpad, the cursor will interact only
with internal details of a single focused window. If I switch between
windows using Alt+Tab or Alt+` then mouse events such as mouse click
will continue to affect the original window.
Keyboard shortcuts continue to work just fine, no matter whether I am
using the laptop keyboard or the external USB keyboard.
