Mouse control is lost after returning to the game menus / restarting after dying ingame. This does only happen if the graphics are running in flipping-mode.
Enable flipping/g-sync in the nvidia graphics driver. Ensure flipping is active (turn off 2nd monitor, watch indicator). Start random multiplayer game. Get overrun by zombies.

Previously mentioned at https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/168#issuecomment-440107101, possibly not a game-specific issue.

Not sure if this is same issue. https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/168 talks about an invisible cursor while mouse input still works, but in this case all mouse input seems to be lost. The menus are only usable with the keyboard, and when back in action it is no more possible to move the camera around using the mouse.
Hello @holzbit, please add PROTON_LOG=1 %command% to the game's launch options, reproduce the issue, and drag and drop the generated $HOME/steam-$APPID.log into the comment box.

Still happening. I can start the game, join to a game and play nice, but if I enter to the menu or die, the mouse dissapear and I can't move the camera anymore:

Any workaround?
I tried to play wth flipping and "sync to VBlank" in off, without the second monitor, and the same issue happened.
A friend of mine, solved that (temporarily) with alt-tab + winkey + click in Zombie-window (in Gnome), but that doesn't work in my case.
I plugged in a PS4 joystick and that works without problem.
The launcher looks strange for me (with every Proton version):

(Spielen = Play, Einstellungen = Settings)

This regression should be fixed in today's Experimental update, could you confirm?

The only thing that interferes with playing is that switch between windows "Alt + Tab" in full screen mode causes loses control in game.
