I believe I am onto the cause of this issue, because the input events are coming from a multi threaded source (in my instance spice) keyboard and mouse input share common code paths without any thread interlocking.

Since keyboard input takes priority over mouse, when more mouse events are being handled it is overwriting and swapping out the data the guest was expecting with mouse input data.

In short, there is a race condition here.
