When I grind sesame alone or with flax seeds, I can see that many of the sesame seeds are not ground.
When I grind several things together including sesame, flax seeds and mixed nuts, like walnuts, almonds, and cashews, the powder becomes more stuck together, and I can't see unground sesames.
Does the second way indeed grind sesame seeds finer or are the unground sesame seeds hidden in the powder?

Grind the sesame seeds separately using a pestle and mortar (if the seeds really have to be ground).
Grinding sesame seeds manually isn't as hard as grinding the other nuts/seeds that you're mentioning - I think it's just the size that helps them not be hit by the grinder blades so effectively.
So, pestle them down and add to the mix afterwards.
