If it doesn't help, have a look into MPX (multi-pointer x); xinput2
allows for multiple mouse pointers and windows can define a cursor per
device which can override the standard cursor. On a single pointer
system, where device cursors are set some windows/apps may override the
standard KDE settings.
This old thread goes into more detail:

Hi! thanks for the reply.
I think this will not fix my issue. See, my problem is not QT (all kde
apps seems to be honoring my size: 24), but rather E globally and (I
think) some gtk apps.
Also, to me it looks like E is not able to (or doesn't want to) be
involved globally in defining a global cursor theme and size. Which I
guess is fine, but leaves the user to figure out how each
library handles each theme, and that can be a little cumbersome.
I will try those vars anyway and report back, thanks!

I seem to recall a similar issue on a system a while ago with QT
and GTK apps not scaling the same - KDE uses QT. Just a guess, but
you could try adding the below 5 lines as environment variables -
how to do that/location will depend on your setup, I think I
edited /etc/environment
export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct
export QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=0
export QT_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTORS=1
export QT_SCALE_FACTOR=0
export XCURSOR_SIZE=24
At your own risk, but could just remove if it doesn't help...best
of luck ;)

Happy new year! I'm having an issue with cursor theme/size.
I'm not using E's theme, I have selected `application` in settings -> mouse
-> e theme. Then, I have configured my mouse theme and size in KDE system
settings -> appearance cursors. My current cursor size is 24.
The problem I have is that some applications respect my cursor size, and
others do not, and I don't understand the pattern:
* Enlightenment and EFL uses size 36
* Dolphin (kde file explorer) uses size 24
* Sublime (gtk3?) uses size 36
* Chrome (gtk3?) uses size 24
I tried modifying gtk configfiles in my home, but without success.
I know this probably is not an E issue and rather a gtk issue, but given
that it _apperas_ like E is following different cursors, I thought this
would be first place to _start_ asking.
Thanks!
