Right now I don't have an xorg.conf in /etc/X11.

I tried those options and I could not get this to change the behavior.
When I created an xorg.conf, I used "wsmouse".

Oh nice, Iain also suggested xev. I can now confirm that simply moving the
mouse causes multiple events. I noticed that the scroll action on the
mouse does not produce any events.
Here is the xev log for moving the mouse (made sure I moved X and Y) and
trying to scroll (which did not produce events):
