We have a patch fixing agent crash on connection during guest startup
(on rare cases) and I can send you a scratch build.
Do you think it's the case? the agent crash locks the mouse but should
have no effect on keyboard. Can you give more details about it?
Posting your %windir%\temp\vdagent.log & vdservice.log may help.

Seems like for some reason the client doesn't get auto-conf ack from the
guest agent. Does it timeout & exit after 30 sec?
This can also be the case if the agent crashed during startup. However,
you say that without the --full-screen=auto-conf it works.
Please check in all cases if vdservice & vdagent processes are up.

I will try to repro from F14 and update you.
