When using the Nvidia Proprietary Driver, visual artifacts can sometimes be seen when the cursor changes state, i.e when hovering a button.

### Steps to Reproduce

1. Install Gala on a system with the Nvidia Proprietary Drivers
2. run Gala (i.e in pantheon) as a display server (not nested)
3. Make the state of the cursor change.

### Expected Behavior

The cursor should not show graphical artifacts.

Secure Session (Wayland, This is the default)

### Software Version

Early Access or Compiled from git

### Log Output

I run with an `Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB` and the `580.142` drivers.
