The small change in mouse here: https://github.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX/pull/758/commits/a208578bf0c8173f7b4f666144f819afde509931

Option 1 is make Dockerfile.mojave or Dockerfile.high-sierra.

Option 2 is add a slightly dynamic mouse movement selection during the Dockerfile.

If I do the dynamic one, I may as well add another one for CPU flag changes for Sonoma.

Also running into this (Catalina).

If that can help anyone, I worked around it by taking the Launch.sh from the container, reverting the change mentioned above, and mounting that updated file back in the container
