This might be a regression where the original issue is:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/883319
It can be easily reproduced by doing something like:
xrandr --output DP1 --scale 1.25x1.25
The mouse will be still constrained to the native solution (aka you
can't move the mouse outside a box of whatever DP1 had as resolution
before.
