Hi,
while I don't know what's causing your specific problem, this sounds a
lot like the behavior you would see back in the day when you set the
mouse protocol to PS/2 when the mouse device was really a serial
mouse, or vice versa.
Try changing the mouse protocol in the xorg configuration file and see
if that helps.
Regards,
Andreas
