OK a work around for this is to create a file in: ~/.icons/default/index.theme
Add the following lines
[Icon Theme] Name = <anything you want> Comment = <anything you want> Example = <anything you want> Inherits = <YOUR THEME NAME>
Where your theme name can be obtained from running gconf-editor under the key
/desktop/gnome/peripherals/mouse/cursor_theme
Restart compiz (Alt + F2 then compiz --replace)
Every time you change the mouse theme you have to remember to change the file you have created.
