Mouse cursor jumps to other screen

I'm running Cinnamon with Ubuntu 18.04 on a Dell Precision 7530 with three Dell U2410 monitors - one (left, X screen 0) HDMI to the laptop, two (middle, right, PRIME displays) DisplayLink to the D6000 dock. The laptop screen is not used except during login.

NVIDIA Driver: 440.100, DisplayLink Driver: 5.3.1.34

I'm seeing the same issue and it makes using any UI controls very difficult when they are on the right side of the middle display, which is very frequent.

When the mouse is between 3-4 "mouse widths" from the right side of the middle display, its image (but not actual location) jumps back and forth to roughly the same position on the right display. Similarly, when very close to the left of the right display, its image jumps to roughly the same position on the middle display.
