Comparison between the cursor over the desktop (correct resolution) and over the settings app (lower resolution than expected). Edit (719.7 KiB, image/png)

It's a blind shot, I have no idea which package should it be. But since it's related to fractional scaling, I'm guessing wayland is a good place to start.
