Bug Description

Hello,

i could not find any similar bug report, using the search or google - sorry if i missed it.

I am using 17.04 Ubuntu Mate i have freshly installed several days ago.
I am using two displays, which are reversed by default though (my left monitor is assumed to be right).
My graphics card is MSI Gforce GTX 1060 6GT OCV1 (6GB).
My monitors are: BenQ Zowie 24" XL2411 (right one, over DVI), and BenQ GL2450 (left one, over HDMI).

When i switch their positions using "Monitors" utility though, my mouse position is displayed incorrectly - it is shown on the opposite monitor, while the clicks are registered on the other one. It can be clearly seen, when using the "show mouse position when pressing CTRL button" option.

I have tried to make a screen capture, but this behaviour cannot be seen on it.
So i made a video using my mobile phone (see attachments).

Please let me know, if i can provide any information, relevant for reproducing / fixing the issue.

Best regards
Dimitri
