Public bug reported: Sometimes when switching the cursor between displays the mouse pointer will duplicate itself on the main display but the second cursor will appear below the primary cursor and rotated 90° counter-clockwise (the external display is also rotated 90° counter-clockwise).
This bug will go away on reboot, or sometimes by itself. Attached is a photo of the effect.
