Describe the bug
I've Barrier server on a Windows 10 and the client with RPi 4. I can connect from Win to Pi, but when I tried to move the mouse to Pi4 monitor I loose the cursor.
I mean the signal passes to the Pi4 monitor, but I can't see it. Instead I see the real Pi4 still with no movement.
IT seems that the keyboard from the server works well.

If I do the opposite (Pi4 as server and Windows 10 as client), the soft connects but I doesn't work.
Pi as server:

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Configure server
Configure client (both without SSL)
Start both
Move your mouse to the client (pi4) monitor.

Expected behavior
Use the mouse normally.

Screenshots
Pi as client

Windows as server (you can see the connection and the "clipboard" working while I'm doing the screenshots)

Desktop (please complete the following information):

OS: Windows 10
Barrier version 2.3.3-release-3395cca9
OS: Ubuntu 21.04 ARM64 (windowing system Wayland)
Barrier version 2.3.3-release-00000000 (installed from repo)

I have just tried this out myself after synergy doesnt support wayland. I thought I was on a winner here. Windows 10 and Pi with Ubuntu 21.04 on a pi4... server is the windows machine. I can connect, get the ticks and when moving over to the pi there is no cursor and mouse clicks dont register anything :(

Hi, I have the same behavior with windows 10 Home and Ubuntu 21.04 on a pi400. Right after installing works flawlessly but after rebooting the pi400 I got the problem.,
