Public bug reported:

When I run a Remote Desktop Session to a windows host - either local on
my machine in a VM or remote - the cursor appears in a garbled square -
maybe 20x20 pixels.

The square seems to show some of the content of the windows hidden by
the Remote Session application.

I tried this with a variety of different Remote Desktop Applications -
and all have the same issue, when the cursor in the Remote Session is
not an arrow, it is scrambled.

I also found that with Remmina, the problem does not appear - because
the cursor shape never changes.

I cannot get a screenshot of the behavior - taking the screenshot
somehow resolves the problem - but only for the fraction of time that
the screenshot is taken.
