Custom WebDriver cannot interact with Selenium Actions methods

I have had to use the Selenium Actions class to use the doubleclick method to interact with some of the elements on my page. This was working fine with the WebDriver (driver = DriverFactory.open(browserType);) but when I convert it to my own custom WebDriver below, the double click is not performed.

When I ran in debug mode I could see that with the custom driver the doubleclick method was called, but the mouse was evaluated as null.

Does anyone know why my custom driver doesn't work with Actions?

package utilities;

import java.util.List;
import java.util.Set;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.JavascriptExecutor;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

public class CustomWebDriver implements WebDriver, JavascriptExecutor
{
    private WebDriver driver;

    private boolean hasQuit = false;

    public CustomWebDriver(String browserType) 
    {
        driver = DriverFactory.open(browserType);
        hasQuit = false;
    }

    @Override
    public void get(String url)
    {
        driver.get(url);
    }

    @Override
    public String getCurrentUrl()
    {
        return driver.getCurrentUrl();
    }

    @Override
    public String getTitle()
    {
        return driver.getTitle();
    }

    @Override
    public List<WebElement> findElements(By by)
    {
        return driver.findElements(by);
    }

    @Override
    public WebElement findElement(By by)
    {
        return driver.findElement(by);
    }

    @Override
    public String getPageSource()
    {
        return driver.getPageSource();
    }

    @Override
    public void close()
    {
        driver.close();
    }

    @Override
    public void quit()
    {
        driver.quit();
        hasQuit = true;
    }

    @Override
    public Set<String> getWindowHandles()
    {
        return driver.getWindowHandles();
    }

    @Override
    public String getWindowHandle()
    {
        return driver.getWindowHandle();
    }

    @Override
    public TargetLocator switchTo()
    {
        return driver.switchTo();
    }

    @Override
    public Navigation navigate()
    {
        return driver.navigate();
    }

    @Override
    public Options manage()
    {
        return driver.manage();
    }

    public boolean hasQuit()
    {
        return hasQuit;
    }

    @Override
    public Object executeScript(String script, Object... args)
    {
        return ((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript(script, args);
    }

    @Override
    public Object executeAsyncScript(String script, Object... args)
    {
        return ((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeAsyncScript(script, args);
    }
}

The custom WebDriver needs to implement the Interactive interface. The Actions class calls the perform() method of this interface in its own perform() method.

You might also need to implement the HasInputDevices interface.

You could also have extended the existing RemoteWebDriver and customized it. Spares you from duplicating methods.
