Thanks Stanislav, I was able to fix this by following your instructions.
Here's my fix for the Plantronics .Audio 626 DSP:
1. Put this in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-plantronics.rules:
ACTION!="add|change", GOTO="xorg_plantronics_end"
KERNEL!="event*", GOTO="xorg_plantronics_end"
ENV{ID_VENDOR_ID}=="047f", ENV{ID_MODEL_ID}=="c006", ENV{ID_INPUT_KEY}="1"
ENV{ID_VENDOR_ID}=="047f", ENV{ID_MODEL_ID}=="c006", RUN+="keymap $name
0xc00e9 volumeup 0xc00ea volumedown 0xb002f micmute"
LABEL="xorg_plantronics_end"
2. Reload udev:
sudo udevadm control --reload
3. Unplug the headset and plug it back in

Title:
Mute button on USB headset steals and holds on to mouse focus
Status in “xserver-xorg-input-evdev” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
When I press the mute button on my USB headset (Plantronics .Audio 626
DSP), it steals the "mouse focus" and holds onto it until I press the
mute button again.
Expected:
- microphone is muted
- nothing else happens
Actual:
- microphone is muted
- mouse can still move but is unresponsive to clicks
- pressing the keyboard doesn't do anything (except for Ctrl+Alt+F1 which
does work and switch to virtual console)
I'm not sure this is filed against the right package, please reassign
if it's not. Also, I'm happy to provide more info, but I wasn't sure
what I could provide (even after reading
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting/).
This is on a fully up-to-date Precise 12.04 system.
