This is a little hard to explain (I've attached a video that might help).
I'm only seeing this on Linux (Fedora 37, Sway 1.7, wlroots 0.15.1). Factorio in Windows on the same system works correctly.
If I select a building from the inventory, the held item preview (showing where the building will be placed and which way it will face) appears when I move the mouse, but disappears every time I press a key on the keyboard (releasing a key is ok). When I don't see the preview, the mouse cursor is replaced by the building icon and the information panel below the map (sorry, don't know what this is called) disappears. When I do see the preview, the mouse cursor is the normal arrow and the panel reappears.
This seems like a bug because it makes placing buildings annoying, particularly rotating them: I have to wiggle the mouse after pressing `R` to confirm I rotated it correctly.

At first, I don't have this problem playing on Linux. But I'm playing an XFCE with regular XServer.
Sway and wlroots are working on Wayland. I also tried factorio on Gnome with Wayland and didn't have this issue.
But, maybe something with sway or or wlroots is fishy...
Do you have a chance to try a different DE or compositor?
Also, the log file might help, i'd guess.
