Even with xscreensaver instead of light-locker, there are times when the cursor disappears on a *fresh* login (not after locking/suspending). I'm trying light-locker again now, and using the workaround from https://linux4tw.wordpress.com/2016/05/25/disappearing-mouse-pointer-in-xubuntu/#comment-47 which at least requires no user-input to keep the cursor.
