Glitching cursor when trying to use smart ping

Skyrim SE General Playthrough

So I was playing recently, and I got really stressed out with a new bug that has been present in game for a long time now, but recently became completely unbearable. When I use Smart ping feature (hold G/V then click&drag), it seems that 60% of the time, after I hold down G/V and click, the cursor "teleports" to a random location on the screen. And as I am using pings fast, it results in me pinging completely wrong things (e.x. OMW instead of MIA, or Danger instead of Assistance)

How to recreate:

  1. Get into the game, obv.
  2. No matter what time into the game, hold G/V then click and hold.
  3. Cursor "teleports" away from the original location as soon as you click.

Some additional info: I am running LoL in windowed-borderless fullscreen-resolution mode, no V-sync, no framerate cap. Everything is on smart-cast, if it makes any difference. And no, the Broadcast software has no effect on this issue. It happens whether it's streaming or not.

Frequency: before last patch - once in 5 pings. Now - 3 out of 5 times. Well, maybe not that frequent in fact, but it feels like it. It definitely is more frequent than usual.

I have a twitch stream video attached to this. Times of this happening: 19:55-20:00 - I try to ping Ahri missing twice, while my cursor decides it wants to jump to the bottom-right corner of the screen. 25:50 - I try to ping Ahri MIA again, the cursor jumps right, then top, and then lets go. 1:08:18-1:08:20 - trying to ping MIA again, and then pinging Danger and Assistance instead.

P.S. These are games on EUW, so it's different from my account here. Also I KNOW I SUCK. THIS IS NOT ABOUT MY LEVEL OF SKILL, OR MY BURNS, OR THE PUDDLE OF TEARS THAT I CRIED AFTER THESE GAMES. Just watch the time stamps for the bug. I just don't know how to cut video out of Twitch, if it's even possible. I was not recording, only streaming.

P.P.S. IDK why it's titled Skyrim SE Playthrough. I tried changing it, and it doesn't work for some goddamn reason.
