I would like to provide some more details about how this problem
manifests on my laptop.

1. This problem only seems to occur when the laptop was put to sleep by closing 
the lid for a while. If the computer is woken up immediately after it goes to 
sleep, the problem does not occur.  It also does not occur if the sleep was 
initiated by any other means besides closing the lid.
2. When the problem occurs, the screen comes up at minimum brightness when 
displaying the lock screen. The brightness is still adjustable. When the does 
not occur, the screen comes up at the brightness it was set to before putting 
the computer to sleep.
3. The mouse cursor is visible at the lock screen. After the computer is 
unlocked, the screen goes black. I have a keyboard shortcut I programmed to 
switch the computer back to using the laptop's screen as the sole and primary 
screen that I made with ARandR. After pressing that shortcut, the screen turns 
back on and displays the desktop without the cursor.
4. While the cursor is invisible, it still works.  I can use it to hover over 
stuff and see the results of said hovering.  It also works for clicking on 
stuff. I can use it to relock the computer which will fix the problem.  I can 
also use it to launch a terminal where I can run killall light-locker which 
also fixes the problem.
5. After light-locker has been killed, the computer works as expected. The 
screen does not lock and the cursor always comes back after resuming from 
sleep. Running light-locker from the terminal makes the problem come back.

I hope this helps track down the problem.
