I see an extra USB device attached to the VM:
00:00:08.020481 VUSB: Attached '00000231a73dd920[proxy 03f0:2c24]' to port 2 on RootHub#1 (LowSpeed)
....
00:01:24.350591 VUSB: Detached '00000231a73dd920[proxy 03f0:2c24]' from port 2 on RootHub#1
which I gather to be the mouse.

I surmise that if you turn off the VM's Mouse Integration (see the Mouse icon on the VM window's status bar, the VM's mouse pointer may appear inside the VM. You may need to not let the VM go Fullscreen or Seamless, also.

Great! Glad you're up and running.

Note that with Mouse Integration off, you will get your host mouse locked in the VM window if you click the host mouse in the VM OS. Tap the Host key (default Right Ctrl, see the VM's status bar far right) to release the host mouse.
