Sounds similar to Bug #993655 - as I said there, try Ctrl-Alt-F1 then Ctrl-Alt-F7 to switch to a terminal and back.

I have done a little research and it appears that this "could" be related to my USB headset and mouse. I am using a Logitech G930 wireless USB headset and a Logitech G9x wired mouse. When I first boot into Ubuntu everything works fine, even with one window open (i.e. Firefox). I can browse the internet, open new tabs, etc., and everything functions as expected. As soon as I open another window or program (i.e. System settings, Terminal) I am unable to select any options in the focused window. If I click something on the focused window (the window in front of another window) the mouse click will actually register on the window below.. if that makes sense :/ However, I am able to select things using the keyboard. I am also unable to open any new programs on my quick launch bar, alt- tab doesn't work.. right-click on empty desktop won't open the menu, etc. The only way to fix this is to restart the X server or reboot. My headset and mouse function properly in the Windows OS. I have also tried them together using Linux Mint 17 w/ Cinnamon desktop and had the same problem. One thing I noticed with Linux Mint 17 was that everything appeared to work properly until I updated the kernel via software update and rebooted. I then started encountering the mouse/window focus issue. > apt-cache policy xorg xorg: Installed: 1:7.7+1ubuntu8 Candidate: 1:7.7+1ubuntu8 Version table: *** 1:7.7+1ubuntu8 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status Please advise if you need more information.
