Mouse cursor not changing colors unless I make it grow.

SUMMARY
Unless I make the cursor grow or hover it over something that makes it change its mode, its color doesn't transition to orange/red-ish or to default after turning on or off night color correction respectively. You can see the video.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Turn on/off nightlight.

OBSERVED RESULT
The cursor stays white or red - in its old color state.

EXPECTED RESULT
The cursor color should smoothly transition as well as the rest of the desktop.
