This is unfortunately correct.
The login screen runs as user 'gdm' which is not privileged. That means
it has no access to retrieve your personal settings until after you have
entered a password. So it uses the system defaults.
You might be able to change the system defaults by editing this file as root:
/usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.gschema.xml

Title:
Mouse speed settings not used on the login screen
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
The login screen doesn't use the mouse hardware settings. In
particular it doesn't seem to use the mouse speed settings. This gives
an inconsistent feeling between the login screen and the desktop if
you're not using the default speed in the desktop. In my case I need
to make the mouse speed much slower to be usable and that means that
when I'm in the login screen the mouse is very jumpy.
The same thing happens for the screen size settings (defaulting to
200% instead of the 100% I've set) but that's less inconvenient
although still shows lack of polish. I assume this is because these
settings are per-user but for the vast majority of desktops that's a
single person anyway so it's a bad default.
