Tiny mouse cursor on hidpi screens after logging in

[David Cesarino de Sousa]

=== System comments

Lenovo Yoga 910 with 13.9" UHD screen.
Bionic Beta 1.
Using 200% scaling.

=== Problem description

Mouse cursor size alternates between tiny size and normal size depending on where I hover the cursor, tiny on top and left bars, normal on desktop and everywhere else.

Of course I expected size to stay normal wherever I positioned the cursor.

=== How to fix the problem

1. Wait for some time or event to pass (have no idea how much/which); AND
2. Click the mouse.

=== Other comments

Must meet both conditions 1 and 2 above in order to fix the issue. That is, cursor size behavior is restored only immediatelly after clicking, but also only after the click has happened after event 1 (and I have no idea what that may be) has passed.

I have noticed this before on 17.10 as well when I briefly tested it last year, but since 1) there are other bug reports dealing with it; and 2) I only use LTS releases anyway, I never got time to test and report it.

This happens on a fresh install of Bionic beta 1. Also today with all updated applied.
