I use mpd and ncmpcpp. mpd allows sending sound data to a fifo, and
ncmpcpp can read from that fifo and do sound visualizations with the data.
So when mpd is playing, it is constantly writing to the fifo and generating
file-notify events. I'm not entirely sure why Emacs is receiving these
events, but it is, and it causes mouse avoidance to kick in without
typing. I can't reproduce the the problem reliably, but it occurs
regularly. The attached patch fixes it for me, and it just makes sense for
mouse-avoidance-ignore-p to ignore file-notify events. I'm not sure if
there are additional types of events that it should also ignore; I couldn't
find an exhaustive list of all the event types.
