Ubuntu – Mouse cursor size is tiny in Chromium (Ubuntu 18.04)

chromiumcursorelectron

I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 with default gnome and I installed Tweaks to change my themes. I'm using theme DMZ White for my cursors.

Everything is OK except for Chromium (Version 69.0.3497.81 (Official Build) snap (64-bit)). The mouse cursor is tiny!

I have checked Slack, Postman, System Monitor and Calculator and the cursor is fine on those apps.

I've tried the instructions here to no avail:
Gnome 3: How do I get the same mouse cursors in Chrome?

How can I change my mouse cursor to a normal size in Chromium?

See my answer to Is there any way to make snap installed apps look more native?. Getting snaps to obey various aspects of the user's theme choices is a work in progress.

More recently, comment #24 related to Ubuntu 18.04 in Graphical snaps don't honour the desktop theme has this:

This is not a uniform bug. Chromium for instance on snap does find the titlebar theme, but not the mouse theme. Gnome Calculator as seen above finds only default theme, but keeps the user choice of mouse pointer just fine.

At this point, all I can advise is patience because the developers are aware of the issue.
