Description Spencer Hill 2017-08-18 19:27:03 UTC 
When a bluetooth mouse is attached (I tested with Apple Magic Mouse version 1) and the mouse cursor goes idle, it disappears. Which is the correct behavior. However, sometimes, it will not reappear when moving the mouse around. Although, you can see it's presence and still click on things as it still applies hover effects. There is just no cursor.

Ubuntu 17.04 + GNOME 3.24

gnome-bluetooth doesn't handle the visibility of the mouse cursor.
