Multiplicity 3.6

Primary PC mouse movement causing mouse cursor movement on Secondary PC

from Stardock Forums

Mouse movements on my Primary PC cause erratic mouse movements on my Secondary even when I'm not connected via KVM. 

My wife uses the secondary PC but complains that her mouse cursor moves randomly when I move the mouse on the Primary - even though I'm not connected to the Secondary via KVM. 

I've tried removing and re-installing Multiplicity on both machines and accepted all default settings but this still happens.  Can anyone suggest how to prevent this behaviour?

I'm using wireless mice on both machines.

TIA

Is the computer also set in the seamless grid?

If you reboot the primary does the problem continue?

Thanks for the reply. I assume you're referring to the "Control switching based on mouse movement" option. I've left all the boxes to do with "mouse switching" unchecked since I never explored what they do.  Should some of these be checked? 

Other than the problem my wife is complaining about, all the mouse cursor movement between my Primary and two Secondaries on my desk in front of me seem to be fine. The wife's PC is a third Secondary and the only one I need to connect to via KVM.

Rebooting the Primary appears to fix the problem for a while but it resurfaces later.
