Bug Description
After I unlock the greeter, I get logged into my session and the mouse pointer disappears.
To fix I have to switch to a terminal session (ctrl+alt+f1-6) and then switch back to the X session (ctrl+alt+f7).

I've also seen this bug in Ubuntu since version 15.10. The same workaround as well. Since X draws the cursor, switching TTYs causes it to be redrawn. It might be an upstream bug.
