Recently, possibly due to a relatively recent update, whenever I hold down left-click/right-click in 3D games the mouse stops moving. This does not always happen immediately, but usually within a couple of seconds.
If I stop holding left-click, then it allows me to move the mouse again.
The game continues receiving clicks while I’m holding the mouse. However, I think that it might not receive new clicks because right click seems to do nothing if the left click is being held. Bit hard to test…
Tried:
- Messing with game settings
- Buying a new mouse because it seemed like it might be a broken mouse (Went from wireless Logitech G305 → wired Logitech G403). Nothing changed.
- Reinstalling manjaro-sway in entirety
- Swapping from kernel 6.1.62-1 → 6.6.1-1
Games tested: Team Fortress 2 (native), Doom 2016 (proton), Factorio (native)
It is harder to observe in Factorio, but visible in that it doesn’t seem to recognize the mouse being in a different position.
The mouse however does visibly move (Factorio doesn’t seem to draw its own cursor?). The issue also does not appear in other applications like the browser.

There is no extra output in dmesg / journalctl when the issue occurs.
I’ll also try booting into different manjaro images to see if they have the same issue, I’ll update this post once I get those downloaded/setup.
