Animations Cause Mouse Cursor to Blink

I just upgraded my video card and am now using the <code>nvidia</code> drivers (I also upgraded my monitor to a Dell Ultrasharp 2005FPW at the same time).  Ever since then, my mouse cursor blinks when either doing animations like the typical hourglass (wait cursor), or when I happen to be hovering the normal cursor over an animation (like the loading screen of Xfce, for example).

The cursor blinking doesn't really cause any problems, but it is somewhat annoying.  Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?

Add "Option "HWCursor" "off"" in Device section (where your GPU is defined) of xorg.conf.
