mouse pointer missing on Rsp3

I just booted my Rsp3 with RuneAudio for the first time.
Booted fine, but I cannot see the mouse pointer.
Moving around does activate menus and such, but I cannot see where it is so control is difficult.
Known problem?

Oh, great.

I am connecting my Rsp3 to the HDMI port on my livingroom TV, but apparently this is not supported?
I have connected the mouse and kbd by wireless.
Without a visible mouse, this is not very workable.

I have tried the suggestion
in /root/.xinitrc change "-use_cursor no" to "-use_cursor yes"

but still no cursor. I am running a Pi3 B.

Any other thoughts?

Hi I am having the same issue with the mouse pointer. I try the mentioned method by Frank but what I find is a /root empty folder.

What am I missing here? How can I see my mouse?

Many thanks in advance,

JC
