Occasional flickering when switching between cursors

Hi,

I have a very minor issue with the mouse cursor in the newest version of the Plasma 5 desktop:
Across multiple applications, but most prominently in web browsers like Firefox, my cursor tends to flicker when changing between cursor types (by hovering over a link or text input for example. After changing the cursor appearance from standard to hand for example, it will appear about a cursor length to the right of the actual cursor location for a very short time (milliseconds) and then recenter properly immediately after.
The strange thing is however, that this issue occurs with all standard cursor themes (Adwaita, Breeze, etc.) except for "KDE Classic", where this flickering disappears entirely. Maybe this is related to the fact that the other themes have multiple cursor sizes avilable? Although manually selecting a size instead of using "Resolution dependant" does not make a difference.

Again, this is a minor issue that most people probably don't notice. Hopefully this is the correct place to ask about this.

I'm running an Arch Linux distribution if that makes any difference.

Thank you for your time.
