I'm running Ubuntu in a VMWare player and whenever my mouse crosses into or out of the VMWare window, a Num Lock On or Off notifier briefly appears underneath it. It's very distracting. How do I remove this? Or how do I just change the num lock status in Ubuntu so that it matches the num lock on the host computer (which will hopefully result in suppression of the popup)?
Here is a video of the problem:

I have a small mac keyboard on my PC and I'll admit I have no clue how or where numlock is on it, either.
For completeness, it's Win 7, Ubuntu 13.04, VMWare player 5.0.2 build-1031769
