Are you currently using adobe's enhanced security features? To check, open up acrobat on the desktop, edit -> preferences -> (side panel) "security (enhanced)" -> and note the state of the checkbox on the top right.

I'm seeing exactly this with both Adobe and pdf-Xchange viewers. FF 22.0

with the pdf open, nothing can be written in for instance, the google search window, close the pdf tab and things can be written but the cursor is invisible.
