Cursor appearing irregularly in full screen gaming

I'm experiencing an irregular behavior where the OS cursor will appear in a full screen gaming application window. This is presumably triggered by mousing over the dock area of the screen. When this occurs, I can hide the OS cursor by clicking out and back into the full screen window, but it's a pretty persistent bug. My game cursor and OS cursor seem to track at different sensitivities (i.e. by positioning the game cursor at the top of the screen and mousing downward, the OS cursor will interact with the dock and appear in the game window as the game cursor appears somewhere in the middle of the screen). Thus it occurs pretty often while gaming, which is a little disruptive to the experience.

I find it peculiar though that this only happens sometimes. Restarting the game application or Crossover seems to have no affect over whether the cursor behaves in this way, but there have definitely been occasions where the OS cursor cannot be made to appear in the game window.

Anyone else experience this / have a solution for it?
