Public bug reported: Sometimes when switching from a vmware-player VM to Unity desktop, the keyboard key repeat and Ctrl+c/Ctrl+v stops working. At the same time, the mouse gets incredibly slow, to a point it becomes unusable. Looking at g-c-c keyboard/mouse, settings/sliders are at usual places. Just touching these settings/sliders slightly is enough to reload usable settings.
I can see this behavior in many install of VMware-player 4 series, during PP and now OO cycle. I'm currently using VMware Player 4.0.2 build-591240 on fresh installs of PP.
