Changing cursor shape for QComboBox items

I want to set cursor shape for QComboBox and his items. With setCursor affecting only LineEdit part of QComboBox, how do I access items view to change cursor shape?

QComboBox *combo = new QComboBox();
combo->addItem("One");
combo->addItem("Two");
combo->addItem("Three");
combo->setCursor(Qt::PointingHandCursor); // changes cursor only for LineEdit part, on popup cursor is still arrow
combo->view()->setCursor(Qt::PointingHandCursor); // does not affect popup view

we use Qt 5.5.1

This code works: 

combo->installEventFilter(this);
//...

bool MainWin::eventFilter(QObject *obj, QEvent *ev)
{
    if( obj == combo 
        && (ev->type() == QEvent::Enter
        || ev->type() == QEvent::HoverMove) )
    {
        combo->setCursor(Qt::PointingHandCursor);
        combo->view()->setCursor(Qt::PointingHandCursor);

        return true;
    }
    return QMainWindow::eventFilter(obj, ev);
}
