Public bug reported: Upon returning from screen lock (typically, re-opening the laptop lid), and _after_ completing the password prompt, the mouse cursor is invisible.
I can restore the mouse cursor by switching away from the X console, and back again (i.e. ctrl-alt-F1, then ctrl-alt-F7). A brief search of bug reports didn't give me a perfect match, although #1467595 matches some of the symptoms.
