Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
• I use a different flow, I am going into VR prior to starting and do the walkaround in VR. Upon entering the cockpit I cannot interact with anything. If I switch into menus several times, eventually the mouse will start working again, but it’s several times in and out.

Although it may work by switching from 2d to 3d, the problem I have is that when I switch to VR, I have a black screen blocking my view which will not dissapear until I go into menus and then back out again. And then mouse doesn’t work.
Same for me as OP. Truly frustrating. Hard to believe testing of VR in the sim was so poor given all the misleading hype from spokespeople about VR in 2024.
Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
• Yes
Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
• Pimax Crystal Light. Mouse clicks will be enabled for ~ 2 minutes then all clickable options become unuseable. need to exit VR mode and/or go to settings and conduct a random search under control tab to re enable clickable zones in cockpit.

Though a better workaround than switching to 2d then back to VR is to hit escape again to go back to the menu options, but then hit escape again to go back into the flight. Do not use the mouse to click anything on the menu screen. Just ESC to go to the screen, and then ESC back into the flight. I think my mouse has worked with the cockpit controls every time after doing this.
