I'm running Ubuntu Gnome 16.04, with gdm3. I do not have light-locker or xscreensaver installed.
This happens almost every time that I fast switch to a different user. Pushing the mouse to the upper left corner (which shows the Activities Overview) and pressing Ctrl makes the cursor show up - every time. Pressing Super (which shows the Activities Overview) and nudging the mouse makes the cursor show up - every time. Nudging the mouse and then pressing Super makes the cursor show up.
This combination - in just about any order - seems to reliably make the mouse reappear:
* Move the mouse
* Press a key
* Show the activities overview
