Bug Description
When I open a session, the mouse cursor moves at the bottom-right of the screen, at a fixed position. The coordinates are about (x:1730, y:970) on a 1920x1080 screen.
When I close the session, the mouse goes again to this position.
I am not sure if the issue really comes from mutter, or gdm, or other component.
This behavior is specially annoying because your first action after log-in will probably consist in launching an application by clicking its icon at opposite position of the screen, in the top-left part of the launch bar.
