Horizon View Keyboard and Mouse issues

Hello VMware enthuiasts,

Lately, I've been having some keyboard and mouse trouble when using a Virtual Desktop on Horizon View 5.2.  I use a Dell M4400 laptop to connect to a Virtual desktop and everything works fine for a limited time.
When you are on the VM it seems like it's frozen but it's not. The mouse moves but clicks are not working and the keyboard does. If I go back to the Hosting OS (laptop) the mouse is working like a charm but the keyboard doesn't.

And everytime I type something on the laptop it appears on the VM. It's aweird bug.

Here are the things that I tried:

1) Uninstalling the Dell touch pad driver.

2) Updating all Dell drivers on the laptop

3) Using the latest version of View client 5.4

4) Looking at VMware log files... But nothing.

5) Editing VM settings (CPU Cores, RAM)

I did some research on the Internet but the only thing I found was a similar problem with mouse clicks not working on VMware fusion.

Has anyone ever had this problem?

Thanks for your help!
