Thank you for your report. Could you try to use screen sharing in your browser on any other site and check, that it happens only in Talk? For example, here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Screen_Capture_API/Using_Screen_Capture#examples (Sub-secion "Result").

Talk is not responsible for the capturing side of the screen-sharing. It could be Talk's problem if it would be about video streaming or recording. But it is mostly impossible for Talk to cause mouse flickering.

I checked your linked site with firefox and chrome browser.

When i press start capture i can see the small window i am sharing. When i moving my mouse i can see the other window in the background and there is no problem like stucking mouse (even so the window is very small, but i can see the mouse).

i now found out that the problem only occurs when i share the whole screen and not just a window. Firefox so far works in every mode. Chrome only when streaming single window or app. When i try to stream full screen @ chrome, i get the problem with the mouse.
