Hardware cursor: FFXIV Custom invisible in fullscreen

Hello.

I am on Windows 11. I've recently changed to playing in fullscreen. This was in response to stuttering issues suffered in borderless windowed; I disabled fullscreen optimisations and went through the usual troubleshooting methods and thankfully it helped.

The issue now is that for whatever reason, the default FFXIV style hardware cursor is invisible in fullscreen. It still exists, like I can still technically click things and move the camera and all that, it's just... not visible.

This issue is not present with the OS standard cursor or the software cursor, but I'd prefer to be able to use the one I've grown accustomed to over the years. I've attempted to search for similar problems but the threads are either 10-11 years old and the only recent one was closed due to no response from the original poster.

I do not use any overlays or extensions, everything is vanilla, and I do not play through Steam. Running in administrator mode, or compatibility mode, does not help. Restarting the PC does not help, and nothing is overclocked. I do not have any external devices connected either, and I do not use a controller. Graphics drivers are up to date and have been cleanly reinstalled. There are no outstanding Windows 11 updates, and I do not use a third party antivirus.

Any help is appreciated.
