That one is easy: Shut down X!
Seriously: Qt has nothing to do with the presence of the mouse-pointer. And 
regardless whether you run a gui or a non-gui app inside your X, there will 
always be a mouse-pointer.
Unless some app tells X to hide the pointer, which is something you might want 
to try. Maybe this one helps or shows a direction:

And when you are talking about a media-player you are definitely talking about 
gui, so if you use any gui-classes from Qt, you have to use QApplication 
instead of QCoreApplication.
