What happened?

I ran Barrier on M2 Mac mini as a client and M3 Mac Book Air as a server. Since quitting Barrier on the both computers at first, the mouse has been stuck after rebooting in the client side. I can use the mouse for the Mac mini by sharing the server's mouse while Barrier is running.

Version

v2.4.0

Git commit hash (if applicable)

No response

If applicable, where did you install Barrier from?

Homebrew (both computers)

What OSes are you seeing the problem on? (Check all that apply)

macOS

What OS versions are you using?

Both are macOS 14.5 Sonoma

Relevant log output

No response
