Title:
  mouse input/alt+tab stops working, restarts working (sometimes) after
  minimizing and restoring windows

Status in Unity:
  Fix Released
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xorg

  Without any obvious trigger, the mouse will cease working. I can still
  move it, but it doesn't do anything like open tooltips or click, and
  hovering over the Ubuntu button doesn't cause the launcher to appear.
  Switching windows via alt+tab or super+w doesn't work either, though
  otherwise the keyboard input works okay in the window which has focus,
  and i can bring the launcher up by holding Super, and launch programs
  using it with the keyboard shortcuts. After i minimize all windows
  using Super+d, the bring them back, the mouse begins working again for
  a brief time, until i try alt-tabbing again or clicking outside of the
  currently-focused window, in which case it reverts to the previous
  behavior. I've managed to make it go away through some non-repeatable
  series of minimizing/unminimizing windows and opening the Ubuntu menu
  over and over again.

  The bug only happens to me in Unity in 11.04; it does not happen in
  the Ubuntu Classic session, and did not happen to me in 10.10.
