It means that you have managed to switch from the VM console window to a 
different application so that the focus_out/deactivation event was not 
delivered to the VirtualBox application for some reason. We've seen 
something similar, but so rarely that no chance to find the reason so 
far. So, if you have a good recipe to reproduce, you're welcome.

P.S. When mouse integration is turned on, the mouse pointer is never 
grabbed (and cannot be). Otherwise, it is grabbed whenever you click 
inside the VM console window regardless of the current keyboard grab 
state. However, both the keyboard and the mouse are ungrabbed at once 
when you press the Host Key (and both will be grabbed again if you press 
it once more).
