Description:
After last updating of X.Org to version 1.5.3-3 and xf86-input-vmmouse
to version 12.6.2-1, seamless mode doesn't work anymore. The mousecursor
is captured by the VMPlayer and can be released only by CTRL + ALT. It's
pretty annoying on working with two monitors with host system on the one
and client on the other. From time to time Host system captures the mouse
by itself => frustraiting moments, if you are writing something. Previous
versions were fine.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
- xf86-input-vmmouse 12.6.2-1
- xorg-server 1.5.3-3

Steps to reproduce:
1) Install ArchLinux in VMPlayer
2) Update packets to the versions above
3) Install open-vm-tools
4) Start X
5) run vmware-user in background
6) try to move the mouse between host an client systems
This task depends upon
