Windows Ink Issues

I am trying to figure out where to start troubleshooting.  I installed a driver for a Huion Kamvas Pro pen monitor.  This driver has an option to select whether or not to use Windows Ink at face value.  When selected, I would like the cursor to disappear.  In Windows settings under Bluetooth & Devices --> Pen and Windows Ink --> Additional Pen settings --> "Show Cursor" is disabled.  PC rebooted.  Huion driver selection is set to enable use of Windows Ink.  I am able to verify in REGEDIT that HKEY_CURRENT_USER --> Cursors --> Pen Visualization is set to 0x00 which should mean disable all cursor stuff when Windows Ink is selected if I am interpreting correctly.  No matter what I try, the cursor will not disappear.  I do notice however that when the "use Windows Ink" selection is checked within the Huion app environment, additional pen parameters (such as smoothing) appear to be applied.  I have a feeling I am in back and forth territory.  Is there a way to definitively check if the issue is rooted in Windows or 3rd party app?

    Troubleshooting Windows Ink and pen cursor issues, especially with third-party hardware like a Huion Kamvas Pro, can be tricky since multiple layers interact—Windows settings, driver configurations, and the app-specific options.
