Cursor hiding on broken on Wayland

[abatkin]

What Operating System(s) are you seeing this problem on?

Linux Wayland

Which Wayland compositor or X11 Window manager(s) are you using?

KDE/Plasma

WezTerm version

20240221_075452_95581d86

Did you try the latest nightly build to see if the issue is better (or worse!) than your current version?

No, and I'll explain why below

Describe the bug

Cursor hiding does not work.

In addition, every keypress generates the following log entry:

ERROR window::os::wayland::window > set_cursor: Cursor not found

Disabling cursor hiding makes the error go away.

To Reproduce

Run Wezterm, press a key

Configuration

This happens with an empty configuration.

Expected Behavior

No response

Logs

No response

Anything else?

This is from a freshly installed Wezterm from the COPR on Fedora 39. KDE/Plasma, AMD graphics card, Wayland.

#4948 looks interesting (since it's the only open issue I can find that mentions the same log entry) so maybe this is a dupe and I'm lucky that it doesn't panic?

Anyway, happy to help debug if I can.

Same problem for me.
Wezterm is also really unresponsive until I move the mouse, sometimes it freezes completely.

Workaround: The error disappears if hide_mouse_cursor_when_typing is set to false.

I'm using a option of my Wayland compositor (Hyprland) that hides the mouse cursor after a some time (cursor_inactive_timeout = 3).

As i understand it, when the compositor hides the cursor wezterm is unable to grab it to set it as hidden. https://github.com/wez/wezterm/blob/95581d8697f3749f84ccb1402ac94ea6582b227f/window/src/os/wayland/window.rs#L897L920
