Mouse cursor offset (cursor image doesn't line up with clicks)

Hi all,

I have just upgraded and rebooted my system after a few months, and I am experiencing an odd problem.

On two of my screens the mouse cursor behaves normally, but on the third screen the cursor appears to be offset by about 32 pixels to the left.  Thus when I click, the click appears ~32 pixels to the right of the cursor, and likewise I can't move the cursor to the right-most edge of that monitor, it stops about 32 pixels before the right edge of the screen.  If I move it to the left of the monitor it disappears entirely before later reappearing on the next screen, instead of jumping across immediately.

If I click around for a bit, open some AwesomeWM menus, etc. then it eventually returns to normal, but it's an odd thing to happen.

Has anyone else seen this problem or know of a fix?  I'm using Intel onboard video, and my system is (at the time of writing) up to date.

Thanks!
