Current audacity-2.4.2 depends on wxGTK:3.0-gtk3, moreover it's the only packaged gtk3 wxGTK version. Release notes are not clear with exact minimum version, they made it clear in response to issue: https://github.com/audacity/audacity/issues/639 Release notes: https://www.audacityteam.org/audacity-2-4-2-released For now wxGTK-3.1 can only be found in one overlay. Reproducible: Always
Someone noted in my issue, that wxGTK-3.1.4 is officially unstable, dev version. As for that bug, it was for tracks redraw issue, which seems to be caused by using wxGTK gtk3 slots (I got redraw problem even with 2.3.2 when built against gtk3 wxGTK, while with gtk2 variant - no problems). Source for version 2.3.2 ebuild - just copied one from 2.3.3, editing patches list and wxGTK slot.

The same happens in BOINC Manager Disk Usage tab. See #650500 Whether updating to wxGTK-3.0.5 or 3.1.4 helps, remains to be seen. (Haven't tested that, yet.)

Just a few more clarity on required versions, as stated on the official site: https://www.audacityteam.org/download/linux/ "Incorrectly built packages Some distributions offer Audacity that was incorrectly built against the wrong wxWidgets (3.0.x). Audacity 2.4.2 must be built against wxWidgets 3.1.3." Actually, it is a bigger mess: https://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Building_On_Linux "WxWidgets 3.1 built with gtk2. (see note below) wxWidgets: Audacity's fork of wxWidgets 3.1.3 (https://github.com/audacity/wxWidgets) should be used as this includes bug fixes that are not yet available upstream. WxWidgets should be built with gtk2 as gtk3 is not yet fully supported." Given that media-sound/audacity-2.4.2-r1 is the only one in the tree and it is marked stable for some reason, I'd see we need to bring back some older version and/or at least mask 2.4.2 with ~arch.
i can confirm downloading the audacity sources and compiling with the gtk2-unicode-3.0 wxwidget implementation eselect-ed fixes the the cursor problems.
this version is gone. the latest one is on 3.2
