tried using Actions class provided with selenium.method used is moveToElement().

Actions actions = new Actions(driver);
actions.moveToElement(element).build().perform();

Used driver version is ChromeDriver 75.0.3770.90.

Expected :- Physical Cursor Must move to element location.

I had the same issue after upgrading to Chrome 75.

Actions actions = new Actions(driver);
actions.moveToElement(element).build().perform();
element.click();

That real solved the problem for me.

I had the same problem with windows too, using chrome 75.0.3770.90 and chrome driver 75.0.3770.8. Try to do this : 

actions.moveToElement(element).release().build().perform();

That solved the problem for me.

The method you are using seems correct. Looks either you need to wait as it quicky moves to next statement 

Actions actions = new Actions(driver);
actions.moveToElement(element).build().perform();
try{
     Thread.sleep(6000);
}
catch(Exception ex){

}

OR

Your element is not ready yet you need to wait for it like below:

Actions actions = new Actions(driver);
WebElement myDynamicElement = (new WebDriverWait(driver, 10))
  .until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(By.id("myDynamicElement")))

actions.moveToElement(element).build().perform();
