As Lars already mentioned, the problem seems to stem from the two input devices. Disabling the second Touchpad helps working around this bug. This can be done in X11 settings:
sudo vi /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/51-synaptics-quirks.conf
# Disable generic Synaptics device, as we're using # "DLLxxxx:xx 06CB:xxxx Touchpad" # Having multiple touchpad devices running confuses syndaemon Section "InputClass" Identifier "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" MatchProduct "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" MatchIsTouchpad "on" MatchOS "Linux" MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*" Option "Ignore" "on" EndSection
