Very Hard Hot Corner Activation

SUMMARY
(At least on my system, with default KDE neon/upstream settings) hot corners are very hard to activate, as seen in the video. If you reduce the activation delay to 100ms or 50ms it works much better.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Try to activate a hot corner

OBSERVED RESULT
Hot corners are very hard to activate (see video).

EXPECTED RESULT
Hot corners should be easy to activate.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: Git Master or lower
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.58 or lower
Qt Version: 5.12 or lower

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Proprietary Nvidia graphics drivers, running on Xorg.

Unfortunately the activation seems to depend on further factors such as input device, mouse acceleration, etc. Unfortunately we don't understand all factors yet, so currently having an option is the best we can offer.
