simple code example demonstrating the defect

SUMMARY
Programs using SDL2’s SDL_ShowCursor(0); function are not able to hide the cursor, this not happening on other compositors so I assumed KWIN was responsible.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Write an SDL2 program using the function
2. Compile and Run

I have attached a simple example that will make use of that function and draw a white square instead of the cursor

OBSERVED RESULT
Cursor is not hidden.


EXPECTED RESULT
Cursor is hidden.
