Two different cursors depending on window

[p3k]

• [x] I've run a search on the existing bug reports to make sure I'm not filing a duplicate (you can use the search box at the top left corner)
• [x] I've read the Regolith documentation and didn't find any relevant topic
• [ ] I tried asking on Slack (especially for configuration related issues)

Describe the bug I see two different styles of cursors (pointer) depending on which window the mouse is hovering.

To Reproduce

1. gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface cursor-theme Yaru-dark
2. Hover over Firefox window → Yaru-dark cursor
3. Hover over Nautilus window → other cursor

Expected behavior I should see the same cursor from the Yaru-dark theme, no matter which window is hovered.

Configuration file(s) In ~/.config/regolith2/Xresources:

Xcursor.theme: Yaru-dark

Installation Details

• Regolith Install Type: ISO (?)
• Regolith Version: 4.2.0-1regolith
• PPA url: [default: ppa:regolith-linux/release]
• Host OS (for PPA): Ubuntu 22.04

I am unable to reproduce this on my pc. I do not have Yaru icons available (debian testing) but tried Faba and Papirus-Dark and did not detect any cursor difference between firefox and nautilus. My firefox is installed via deb, I wonder if you have a snap version installed? As I recall users have to do something for snap apps to integrate with local gtk settings..

Try adding to your ~/.config/regolith2/Xresources this line:

Xcursor.theme: Yaru

It helped me with a consistent cursor theme across applications. Ubuntu 22.04, Regolith 2.2
