Sounds similar to Bug #993655 - as I said there, try Ctrl-Alt-F1 then
Ctrl-Alt-F7 to switch to a terminal and back.

Title:
  Mouse loses focus when multiple windows are open

Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hello,

  I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I have done a little research and it
  appears that this "could" be related to my USB headset and mouse. I am
  using a Logitech G930 wireless USB headset and a Logitech G9x wired
  mouse.

  When I first boot into Ubuntu everything works fine, even with one
  window open (i.e. Firefox). I can browse the internet, open new tabs,
  etc., and everything functions as expected. As soon as I open another
  window or program (i.e. System settings, Terminal) I am unable to
  select any options in the focused window. If I click something on the
  focused window (the window in front of another window) the mouse click
  will actually register on the window below.. if that makes sense :/
  However, I am able to select things using the keyboard.

  I am also unable to open any new programs on my quick launch bar, alt-
  tab doesn't work.. right-click on empty desktop won't open the menu,
  etc.

  The only way to fix this is to restart the X server or reboot.

  My headset and mouse function properly in the Windows OS. I have also
  tried them together using Linux Mint 17 w/ Cinnamon desktop and had
  the same problem.

  One thing I noticed with Linux Mint 17 was that everything appeared to
  work properly until I updated the kernel via software update and
  rebooted. I then started encountering the mouse/window focus issue.
