As a data point for future googlers, I had what sounds like the
same/similar problem today, my middle-button-click stopped working.
Except I found that it was working but I had to hold it down for a few
hundred ms until it reliably clicked, sometimes quickly clicking in
succession would report some clicks also, but holding it down for about
half a second was reliable (but annoying).
Anyway, long story short I issued the following set-prop for "Evdev
Middle Button Timeout (269)" and it corrected the issue, note that I
also first tried changing the property to 10 first and that didn't make
a difference, but now after having set it to zero I can increase that
property to seemingly anything and it all works fine, so I don't know
what exactly is going on there.
xinput --set-prop 11 269 0
(where 11 is the device id of my mouse (xinput without arguments will
tell you), 269 is the property being set, and 0 is the value I am
setting,
Here are the list-props when I was experiencing the problem

Title:
Middle mouse (wheel-click) button stopped working after upgrade to
16.04
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Since upgrading to 16.04 clicking the middle mouse button (scroll
wheel) on my Logitech M185 stopped working.
xev does not even show the event for clicking the wheel, while it
shows other button clicks and scroll wheel up/down events.
xinput list shows the USB receiver 2 times:
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer
(2)]
⎜ ↳ Logitech USB Receiver id=9 [slave pointer

⎜ ↳ SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad id=16 [slave pointer

Listing the capabilities looks like this:

Does anyone have an idea how I can attempt to further debug that issue? Or
maybe even a solution? Should I consider this issue a bug? Can I provide more
info?
