I cannot reproduce the issue. I can see the mouse cursor on the captured frame.

BTW, for tab capture, we only paint the mouse cursor when 
1. The tab is active (namely on top of other applications)
2. The mouse is in the region of the tab.

I'll mark this issue closed so far. If you can reproduce it, feel free to reopen it.
