Bug Description

Inevitably the mouse cursor will become fixated on screen at the position it was when the screen was unlocked. When I switch TTY and come back the lock screen will change and I'll be able to move the fixed mouse cursor to a new location. Only fix is to restart the computer and the bug is guaranteed to recur. I am able to move the active cursor around the screen but there is a persistent one that I am unable to interact with.
