When a window confines the cursor and there's another floating window above but inside, the cursor gets stuck on the upper window's boundary.
See demonstration video:

The Hyprland video also doesnt load, so maybe you need to fix that one too.

Both All four videos work perfectly fine on both mobile and PC for me.
I can also confirm this undesirable behaviour has existed for a long time in Niri, and isn't new.

Interesting but also need to look what exactly is going on there and decide the behavior that makes sense

I think I also have similar problem whenever I play game then DMS notification popped up, the game's cursor cannot go below or above the notification, so I can't close the notification either. It just stuck on the edge of the notification.

Yes this also happens with popup layers from other shells like noctalia. I didn't realise the post mentioned windows specifically, but this behaviour is present with both windows and layers.
