This bug is seen on Ubuntu 13.10 64-bit, as guest system, on a VMware Workstation 9.0.1 virtual machine with dual screen. The host system is Windows 7 64-bit on Lenovo Ideapad Y480N laptop, which uses Intel HD Graphis 4000, and a secondary Nvidia GT650m card. I have installed VMware tools in the guest system. To reproduce the bug, switch the virtual machine to full-screen mode, then press the "Cycle multiple monitors" button on the toolbar to expand the guest to the 2nd screen. The mouse cursor then disappears when moved to the 2nd screen, while in 1st screen it remains fine. However if you move quickly enough, you can see it remain visible for a very short moment on the 2nd screen before it vanishes. I tested using my built-in monitor as main display, the external Dell monitor as 2nd display, and vice versa. In both situations the bug exists. Workaround includes bringing out tty via Ctrl Alt F1 then back with Ctrl Alt F7, as well as simply opening up a file explorer window, which will cause the shape of the cursor to change to "wait". This fix is persistent until the vm is powered down. Locking the screen, logging out or suspending (via VMware or inside Ubuntu) will not bring back the bug.
