Describe the bug
I did attempt to compile only for console mode (disabling GUI in order to avoid to download QT) so I turn off "-D BARRIER_BUILD_GUI=OFF" also without installer (-D BARRIER_BUILD_INSTALLER=OFF) but I found an issue, when the mouse passed to other PC (both was Windows ) , the mouse was stuck in the other PC (client one), the keyboard works great, but I'm stuck in the client one and then I can't return to server PC also the mouse's cursor disappear in client's one

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Compile without using GUI feature (-D BARRIER_BUILD_GUI=OFF) and no installer (-D BARRIER_BUILD_INSTALLER=OFF)
Run the server
Run the client'
Attempt to go to Client's PC
Mouse's cursor disappear and you keep stuck in client's PC

Expected behavior
I did expect to works perfectly in both computers.

Screenshots
none

OS: [Windows 10]
Barrier version [2.3.3]

Additional context
Note: my doubt if is mandatory to compile using GUI in order to control the mouse
