Description Eris 2024-07-12 03:50:04 UTC

SUMMARY
After resuming from sleep on my laptop, the cursor on the login screen seems to be missing, but when moving the cursor around, the hover animation on the buttons lights up when the cursor is over the buttons and clicking does work. Also, when shaking the mouse around via the touchpad, it reappears momentarily before shrinking back out of existence. This is consistently reproducible even after updating and restarting my system. Furthermore, it does not happen when I manually lock the screen.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Sleep the computer
2. Wake the computer from sleep
3. Attempt to move the mouse cursor

OBSERVED RESULT
The graphical piece of the mouse cursor is missing however you can still interact with the ui. Shaking the mouse makes the cursor appear and then after a delay it shrinks back and disappears

EXPECTED RESULT
The cursor should function normally after waking from sleep
