Yes. There are two options, for GTK2 and GTK3. You can try playing
around, if you set the GTK2 to "QtCurve" and the GTK3 to "default" for
exemple, maybe that helps.

I for one don't see any problems with the mouse, even if both are set
to oxygen-gtk, but that might depend on individual settings, mouse
drivers, etc.

Fact is: there are known problems with the oxygen-gtk problem for some
Kubuntu users when using GTK applications under KDE, and it has been
identified to be due to the oxygen-gtk theme.
