Ditto - the host is fine; once I return mouse control to the host, it behaves normally.

In my case a KVM/switch doesn't come in to play; I am using a Displayport KVM, but the mouse devices are not connected to it - they're attached to the host via an external hub. (I'm only using the KVM to switch video cards to one monitor.)

I will try to make it happen again and look for log messages later today.
