This happen to me too. After a fresh install of Ubuntu 15.10 i hit this bug (the mouse pointer dissapear) twice in a week. I couldn't reproduce it, it happened while i'm logged in, randomly. To 'fix it' i had to close my session and log-in again.
In my case, the mouse pointer appears on LightDM (by now). 
Best,
Emiliano.
