Hello,
I have a weird problem that sometimes (multiple times a day) the hover state of my cursor stopt working. Currently I'm using a wireless and wired Razer mouse. When the problem occur i have to disconnect and connect my mouse again. The touchpad also does not show any hover effects anymore when it happens.
Device: Macbook Pro m1
Is this some known problem?

Try a different Mouse to test— sounds like a hardware issue with the mouse.
Have you searched for any updated driver for your " wired Razer mouse" (?) to eliminate software.

Is this an old problem, new problem, what changed?
To trouble shoot further you can:
—Try a SafeBoot https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201262
Takes noticeable longer to get to the login screen, does a 5-15 minute disk repair before it fully boots up, and certain system caches get cleared and rebuilt, including dynamic loader cache, etc.
Login and test. Reboot as normal and test as caches get rebuilt.
In Safe mode third party system modifications and system accelerations are disabled, it removes malware, etc hampering smooth operation, however a reboot will put it back to normal mode.

I think I have found the problem. When i scroll down and click the middle mouse button it all freezes. This is both happening for razer and logitech mouses. Is anyone else having this problem? Will try later in safe mode.
Edit: Same thing is happening in safe mode.
Thanks for the reply.
The issue is new, and started occurring after i updated to the latest version of big sur. I even switched to a Logitech g502 today and the problem still occurs.
I booted my mac in safe mode and restarted the mac but this made no difference :(.
Mouse / Touchpad hover stop working
