I have had this same problem since upgrading to 18.04, and it has been
infuriating, as the defaults greatly impact my ability to perform my
work. I'm going to have to switch distros (planning for Solus) if this
does not get fixed. Additionally, Lagoda's solution (in #10) did not
work at all for me.

I have done all of the following both after removing libinput via 'sudo
apt remove xserver-xorg-input-libinput' and after re-installing it, and
there was no difference in any of the behaviors.

I have been able to verify that changing the sliders for acceleration
and sensitivity change the values displayed by 'xinput --get-feedbacks
13' (13 being my pointer device, as discovered via 'xinput --list').
However, there is no difference in mouse movement whatsoever, even
between all 4 extreme min/max combination settings. However, I have been
able to change the acceleration via 'xinput --set-prop 13 "libinput
Accel Speed" x', where x can be between -1 and 1, and I am both able to
definitely notice the dramatic change in acceleration, and the change in
the value reported via 'xinput list-props 13'.

However, without being able to change the sensitivity, I still have
issues performing my work.

There was no need to install evdev on my machine, as in Lagoda's
solution (in #10), as it was already installed.
