I have the same problem. It seems to occur after leaving the machine
idle for a while, and closing the lid. (Though this doesn't suspend,
just switches off the screen)

When I open it again the mouse pointer seems to randomly cycle between 3
types of behaviour. The first is that described by Étienne. The second
is that any movement with a single finger is interpreted as a scroll
(the touchpad is set to use two-finger scrolling). The third is normal
operation, which generally comes back eventually, but not always for
good. Quite often normal operation is restored for a little while and
then regresses again.

When working normally, the touchpad is very sensitive, to the point that
other people complain about it when using my laptop (I guess I'm used to
it). This would be another issue though, I guess.
