VLC: Mouse cursor doesn't automatically hide when in fullscreen.

What's happening:

  • I play any video in VLC, toggle full screen on, mouse cursor should disappear but it just stays visible no matter what. The only way to hide it is to drag it to the bottom right corner of the screen.

What I tried:

  • Went to Tools>Preferences>Video(Show All) and set "Hide cursor and fullscreen controller after x milliseconds" to "0". The controller disappears instantly when I go to fullscreen, but the cursor stays visible. Tried setting it to "1", but same result.

Other info:

  • Strangely, the cursor does disappear when leaving it in certain areas of the screen, like 2cm from the edge of the screen.

  • EVEN MORE STRANGELY, if I have taskbar running in the background with no other windows open, the mouse cursor disappears like it's supposed to, no matter which part of the screen I leave it on.

  • Some people have reported uTorrent might be causing the issue, but it happens even with uTorrent off (although, uTorrent has been acting strange lately too, starting up on its own at random times. Not sure if related).

Help?
