This sounds quite similiar to what happens on my ThinkPad R61 with Intel GMA X3100. I use KDE 4.3.2 under Debian Testing AMD64. When I boot with an external TFT at VGA and switch from 1024x768 to 1280x1024 (native resolution of the external display) the cursor becomes invisible on the external screen. When I switch back it reappears. After some time it becomes visible again when I leave the resolution at 1280x1024. I'm not sure why exactly ... when I looked on the TFT it was suddenly there. In all these instances I was working in a terminal window (yakuake), but I have to verify if that's the reason. I had no problems with Kubuntu 9.04 and the external display.
