Mouse-flicker when sharing screen

Reported by jeremy.n...@gmail.com, Jun 1 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_9_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/51.0.2704.63 Safari/537.36

Example URL:
https://hangouts.google.com

Steps to reproduce the problem:
Windows only.  No repro on OSX.

1. Go to hangouts, create a new room, join room
2. Share screen (you may have to share a large screen, or have multiple monitors?)
3. Notice that the mouse flickers while sharing the screen.

What is the expected behavior?
The mouse does not flicker.

What went wrong?
I'm not sure.  There's a semi-related bug I found with firefox: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1053264 - it's possible there's a relationship.

Did this work before? N/A 

Is it a problem with Flash or HTML5? HTML5

Does this work in other browsers? Yes 

Chrome version: 51.0.2704.63  Channel: stable
OS Version: OS X 10.9.5
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 21.0 r0

Reproduced on Windows 7.  Seems worse with certain monitors/monitor combinations.  Flicker ranges from almost unnoticeable to annoying.

Reporter states: "Windows only.  No repro on OSX." so moving to Windows.

We have an algorithm to hide mouse pointer if the user has no action for seconds.
Maybe something goes wrong there, and we hide the mouse pointer when should not.
I cannot reproduce the issue on my windows laptop with/without external monitor.

Too old issue, not reproducible and no reply from the reporter.
