Trackpad stopped working, but bluetooth mouse works as usual. Happens only after login.

xinput output:

⎡ Virtual core pointer                      id=2    [master pointer  (3)]
⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer                id=4    [slave  pointer  (2)]

Turns out after many days of debugging this that the touchpad setting was turned off, I have no idea why nor do I recall doing this.

I had the same issue. My touchpad would not work, but my touchscreen luckily still worked. I went in the settings as you did and my touchpad setting was still enabled. I toggled it off and then back on.

Following the advice of touchpad issues from 18.04, I ran the following commands:

sudo modprobe -r psmouse and sudo modprobe psmouse proto=imps

After these commands and a reboot, my touchpad was working again.
