I had the same problem for a while and I've recently found out, that it came from disabling the Unity/Switcher setting to show live previews of the window. This is necessary for (at least some) nVidia users to keep minimizing windows from getting black. However, enabling the Workarounds plugin and activating "Keep previews for minimized windows" solves this problem entirely. Hope this helps.

The actual position of the mouse pointer in the window is lower the the position of the cursor on the screen (about the window title height or unity panel height). Most of time it happens with firefox (after fullscreen flash-video) but also with other apps. I have same problem in previous versions of Ubuntu, if the "window placement" plugin was disabled. In this case the plugin is active.
