Hello,
this is really annoying problem and apparently nobody cares except for the
people that experience it.
But I have found a better workaround that works at least for me:
In /etc/init/sddm.conf after line:
exec sddm
add:
killall sddm
exec sddm
Just restarting sddm automatically right after it strated. No more
logout/login manually.

Title:
Lagging square around mouse pointer

Bug description:
(This can also be an nvidia related problem)
Mouse pointer behaves as if it has an invisible square attached to it.
This square covers some area next to the pointer, but it is not always
clear exactly where (a link to a screenshot is shown below, please
note the white square with some text from the previous webpage
displayed in that window).
This makes selecting text difficult, as one never knows where exactly
the selection ends. Also, scrolling in some windows becomes
problematic, as the pointer shadows a part of the scrollbar. When a
text is being typed, one needs to make sure that the pointer is parked
sufficiently far from the text (so, to make a long story short, this
is very annoying).
This behavior does not depend on the choice of the cursor theme.
