Title:
  Locate pointer not working when animations are disabled

Status in GNOME Shell:
  New
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  I have just upgraded to Ubuntu 23.10 (Mantic Minotaur), going through the 
regular process of settling in with the new features and so forth, I realised 
that the 'locate pointer' is not working as expected. 
  When the focus is on a screen element (like this text field that I am 
entering information into) I can press the left ctrl button and the border will 
flash around the element/text field/button etcetera. 
  (I have made a screen cast, if I can I will upload it)
  Previously when pressing the left ctrl button the mouse pointer would be 
shown with a circular pulsing image (like a something dropping into calm 
water). 
  I have read several forums and have looked specifically how to set the locate 
pointer option, I have set it in accessibility->pointing & clicking->Locate 
Pointer, also via cli with "gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface 
locate-pointer true" and using the gnome tweaks gui. 
  None of these things work.
  Ubuntu 23.10,gnome 45, gdm3, acer aspire V 17 nitro black edition 
  Description:  Ubuntu 23.10
  Release:  23.10
  Not seemingly specific to any 'package' so package version is not relevant.

  Expect the mouse pointer to be highlighted instead only the cursor position 
is located.

Thanks Daniel, 
Should I start a new thread regarding the 'show pointer' in the screencast 
function that is launched via ctrl+shift+alt+r or prntSc?
