I tried copying over the entire ~/.local/share/gnome-do folder from my existing account where gnome-do works fine to a new account, but that does not fix the problem, so the problem is not (only) a config setting in gnome-do.

Mouse can be moved, even some mouse-over events work. But clicking and typing is not registered (not even ctrl-alt-f1). Only way to fix the problem is to ssh in from outside and kill gnome-do. Then everything works fine again.
