Photoshop: Mouse cursor replacing brush outline when drawing on a layer with a mask enabled
When making quick short strokes the brush outline cursor is replaced with the standard mouse pointer cursor, on a layer that has a mask enabled. This doesn't seem to be an issue when the layer's mask is disabled or when the brush is changed to crosshairs.
I primarily use photoshop to paint, and while I don't use layer masks every day, it is definitely an issue when I am working on a piece that is quite detailed.

If anyone is having the same issue I finally solved. Just turn off "Tip Double Click Distance" on Wacom Pen settings.

Hi,
For 2 months now I've had a problem with Photoshop while drawing with my Cintiq Wacom 22HD Touch. While using masks in Photoshop, my brush cursor turns into a mouse cursor while drawing causing it to not work well. But when I draw with the mask switch off or on a new layer without the mask, it works properly. It's quite annoying since working with masks is very useful. I've tried everything I could think of so far - reinstalling Photoshop, reinstalling Cintiq drivers and many other solutions I could find on the Internet, but he problem is still there. Could you please fix it or tell me how to fix it? I have Windows 10 (always up to date). Attached is the video how the problem looks like. https://youtu.be/lzlVaFU48ls (<--- adding a link to the video since for some reson it cannot be open full screen from the video below)

Having exactly the same issue, so it's still not fixed, just posted about the issue here as well :(. In my case switching off the tip double click distance didn't work. Still the mouse cursor shows up.

Same issue here when trying to paint. Had enough of dealing with Windows ink for years and now this. Always feel like I'm fighting Adobe products to get them to work (thanks for bringing Windows ink to Substance painter....)
I'm using a Wacom Cintiq, windows 10. Constant flicker of the damn mouse cursor when trying to paint. Switching to crosshair appears to fix it but I need to see the brush.
