Sometimes the cursor hides itself and then when you launch an app with the keyboard, only the launch feedback animation is shown for the app and the cursor still remains hidden. In my case, the cursor becomes hidden when I start typing. Operating System: EndeavourOS KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.10 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.115.0 Qt Version: 5.15.12 Kernel Version: 6.7.8-arch1-1 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® HD Graphics 4400 System Version: ThinkPad T440s
Can reproduce the issue on Wayland too. Pretty minor and low priority though, I'd say.
