Thanks for the tip! For posterity, here it is:

def set_mouse_autosnap_to_default(state):
    """The mouse is auto-positioned in the control panel. This turns 
on/off this
    auto-snap.

    :state: True/False (set to bool)
    """
    h = ctypes.c_void_p()
    # set postion
    ctypes.windll.user32.SystemParametersInfoW(0x60,state,ctypes.byref(h),0)
    # recover position
    # print 
ctypes.windll.user32.SystemParametersInfoW(0x5F,0,ctypes.byref(h),0)
