More info: The issue is both at the login screen and within the wayland desktop. Left mouse clicks on any part of the interface are not recognised, even though I can move the mouse.
bug 1181666 sounds familiar however logouts/reboots do not reset the mouse. It is as if the default starting setting for the mouse have somehow disable left mouse clicks. If from the login screen I select the X11 graphics subsystem then the mouse works as expected. The other thing is that the mouse was working normally under wayland in 17.10 up until I reported the bug - so something changed, and Im guessing that change was in the low level mouse settings for wayland. Hope that helps a little more. BTW the files uploaded were generated under the X11 session, not the wayland session. Please let me know what you need me to do to generate any other log/config file info you need.

However booting into X11 from the login screen fixes the mouse issue! If I try to login with Wayland then the problem reemerges. Ive even enabled "Pre-Release Updates and downloaded all the updated files in the hope of fixing the issue - it didnt. So HELP! Even though I have a working system I would prefer to be working under Wayland.
