Recently started having this issue too. When returning from lock screen:
On the lock screen the mouse cursor is visible and working. After successfull password, the mouse still works but the cursor pointer is not visible.
Notes:
Recently I started to, ocasionally, connect to TV via display port (don't know if it is related)
Workarounds that work for me:
- shutdown and restart the computer - this is tedious and disruptive, but works.
- press fn+f7 (key for changing to external display. Since there is no external display the screen just flickers once) - THIS IS EASY and fast, basically, the reason for my comment here.
