When I startup Xubuntu 18.04 beta on my 4K TV (connected by HDMI) the
cursor is much too big. The system will boot into Full HD resolution and
not 4K. If I then go to the Xfce Mouse settings under the tab "mouse
themes" to change the cursor size I only need to change the size of the
cursor 1 pixel up and down and everything is fine again and the cursor
has again the correct size. In my case I change the cursor size from 24
to 25 and then back to 24.

I just installed a fresh copy of Xubuntu 18.04 on a new system with a 4k
screen, and I am having the same issue.

When I boot and login the mouse is huge when on the desktop, but changes sizes 
when hovering over certain applications.  As was mentioned by Manuel, if I 
change the cursor size setting or simply change the cursor theme from "Default" 
to "DMZ (Black)" and then back to "Default", the problem disappears. 
 The size is normal and constant no matter what application I hover over.

I found this older post from someone who was using Xubuntu 14.04 a few
years ago, and I believe it to be the same bug.  The images and behavior
accurately describe what we are seeing in 18.04.

xubuntu-14-04-with-xfce-4-10

I'm also wondering if the issue is somehow related to this bug:

https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7415

In that instance I see no mention of size changes, but they similarly
have changes in the applied cursor theme based on whether the mouse is
hovering over the desktop or other applications.
