Mouse cursor disappears behind window


Description of the issue:
Mouse cursor disappears behind windows. Mouse will reappear at the perimeter of the window, but disappears behind the content once it has entered into the main body of the window (pas the tabs/address bar).

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Open multiple tabs with Brave taking up half the screen, docked on the left side of the monitor (I have tabs stacked vertically on the left)
  2. Drag one of the tabs to it’s own window (mouse should start disappearing now behind the new window)
  3. Drag the tab to the right side of the screen so the new window snaps to the right half of the screen (the mouse will now disappear behind the original window, also)
  4. Close the new window and the mouse will stop disappearing and function normally

Expected result:
Mouse stays visible
Brave Version( check About Brave):
1.75.175
Additional Information:
Moving the mouse back and forth past both windows to the perimeters (I go to the address bar on the right window to the vertical tabs on the left of the left window) will intermittently make the mouse reappear on the original window, even less frequently on the new window, but a couple of repeat trips of the cursor will cause it to start disappearing again.

This is very likely caused by the same upstream issue that is known and has a fix coming tomorrow:
