Mouse capture (game optimisation) broken with 17.1

With 17.1, the mouse input is jumpy and way too fast when using mouse capturing (game mode/optimization), making it impossible to consistently point at any particular position.

With AoE2 HD, I experience the following issue, which was not present in 17.0(.1):
  • Mouse works fine in the guest os until I start AoE2 HD (which likely changes the resolution)
  • Then, mouse is jumpy and acceleration is way off, rendering it unusable (and the game unplayable).
See the attached video for comparison (trying to aim at the two buttons on opposite ends of the mini map).

When using a single display, a workaround is to disable the game mode optimisation for mouse input. However, this workaround does not apply to multi-screen setups.

Near the end of the video, the cursor is freed using ctrl-alt, to show the expected behaviour.
