Cursor grab issue with modded STALKER SoC (fedia.io)

I've managed to install Autumn Aurora 2.1 on my Steam copy of SoC and have it running fine. Unfortunately, with my dual monitor set up, the cursor is not grabbed by the game and minimises every time I clicked outside of the game.

I've seen threads about gamescope's cursor grab is bugged? Wondering how else I could solve this problem. Thanks in advance!

Edit: Found a solution from this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWkmZkOA88s (looks like he's having problems with SoC too haha)

In protontricks -> select your game -> Select the default wineprefix -> Run winecfg -> Graphics -> Automatically capture the mouse in full-screen windows

It's probably more to do with your game resolution not being registered as matching the primary or extended display workspace. There are ways to force this, but with a mod it's probably a crapshoot. Worst case scenario just unplug one monitor, and make sure the game resolution matches the desktop resolution when you start it.

After some more looking I found a video that there's an option within protontricks that locks the cursor that works for me. Thanks for your suggestion though!
