Cursor gets hidden even it is currently being used with a drawing tablet (wacom)

[cristobaltapia]

• Sway Version: 1.4

• Configuration File:

input 1386:788:Wacom_Intuos_Pro_S_(WL)_Pen {
    map_to_output DP-1
    map_from_region 0.0x0.0 1.0x0.901
}

# Define seat for wacom tablet
seat seat_wacom attach "1386:788:Wacom_Intuos_Pro_S_(WL)_Pen"

### Seat configurations
# For the default seat
seat seat0 hide_cursor 10000

# For wacom seat
seat seat_wacom hide_cursor 10000
seat seat_wacom idle_inhibit tablet_tool
seat seat_wacom idle_wake tablet_tool

I have a "Wacom Intuos Pro S" which I want to use with its own seat. I also want the cursor corresponding to this input device to hide after 10 sec if it has not been used. This seems to work... but not quite. If I use the pen of the tablet on an empty monitor (no program opened) then the cursor does not get hidden. However, if I use a program (e.g. MyPaint or Xournal++) and draw something, then the cursor gets hidden after 10 sec, even if I am constantly moving the pen.

There are other problems I have been experiencing with this configuration, like swaylock getting started even if am using the keyboard (it happened also while I was writing this).

This is also the first time that I am trying to configure different seats, so it might well be something that I am missing.

I'm facing the exact same problem here on sway 1.4. Relevant config lines are:

seat * hide_cursor 2000
input 1386:890:Wacom_One_by_Wacom_S_Pen map_from_region .0x.1 1x1
