[PROBLEM] Mouse pointer does not change when skin is changed

[jvig]

Hi, I'm setting a fresh up-to-date installation of xbian with kodi 15.2 on a pi2.
After installation I changed the default skin to another and the pointer theme did not change accordingly.
I tried several skins which support their own cursor themes but the result was the same.
In one of my installations the default cursor was replaced by a thin and small white arrow (something like a very old X11 cursor, not a skin themed cursor) and couldn't revert it.

Is this by design or should I try a version a bit older?
