Mouse invisibly sticks itself - Linux host & guest (FOUND AN OVERRIDE)

(Update June 15)

I have finally found an override: after installation of VMware tools, you can change the guest OS settings in VM Settings  -> Options -> General to recognize it as Windows 7\8, and thus, override this bug, and thus also speed up the guest OS.

Hello. I have a little problem - the invisible mouse of the actual vm sticks itself without affecting the visible cursor when approaching corners of a vm if either guest and host are Linux.

For example: I move a window to the corner of the vm - and it is stuck there for few seconds, even if i move the visible mouse out of the way and even if i unhold the left mouse button. And it does that even in fullscreen, and even with guest add-ons installed.

Example video has been uploaded here as well as here(link in case you can't see it from the following YouTube embed video):

Please help me fix this problem, etc...

 

On a Windows guest it never happened.

 

Host OS: Linux Mint

Guest OS: Ubuntu\Other Linux OSes

Intel Core i3
