Daniel van Vugt: I've been using the system with the xorg.conf you suggested and the problem does seem to have gone away with software cursor. I've been using it since you posted and haven't had the problem SO FAR.
Although, using software cursor seems to have problems of it's own. The cursor flickers on and off, becomes invisible on clicking the desktop, and menus aren't rendered properly, often missing a tiny portion. So it's not a reliable fix. I hope the bug is fixed soon.
