** Description changed:

  When I connect my laptop to my DisplayLink based device with USB (Wavlink 
universal USB 3.0 docking station https://www.wavlink.com/en/product/150 
WL-UG39DK1V), and connect the Wavlink to my AOC E2775SJ Monitor via HDMI, the 
mouse icon flickers as per the following video:
  https://launchpadlibrarian.net/346625588/20171121_131417.mp4
  
  Only if the mouse is on the laptop monitor, it can vanish for several
  minutes, but remains active.
  
  Animations/overlays or typing inside a Chrome window causes the mouse
  pointer to flicker more often. If there is no interaction or animation,
  the mouse pointer remains static and drawn.
  
  Monitor 1: 1920 x 1080 - Laptop's Native Monitor
  Monitor 2: 1920 x 1080 - DisplayLink (USB) connected AOC E2775SJ Monitor
  
  This issue doesn't happen if I don't connect my laptop to an external
  monitor via the Wavlink device.
  
  This issue is reproducible with DisplayLink driver 1.4, and 1.3.54.
  
  This issue is reproducible with Ubuntu 16.04, 17.04, and 17.10 x64.
  
  I've reported this to DisplayLink via:
  https://displaylink.org/forum/showthread.php?p=84713#post84713
+ 
+ WORKAROUND: Use GNOME Flashback (Metacity) session.
  
  WORKAROUND: In the GUI go to All Settings > Screen Display > for the primary 
monitor change Rotation from Normal to any of the following:
  Clockwise
  Anti-clockwise
  180 degrees
