Yes, I have it working on my system.  Besides the two InputDevice sections you 
posted, you may need to change your ServerLayout section to something like 
what's below.  The other key ingredient is to make sure that all the modules 
needed for the usb mouse are loaded before X starts.  Otherwise, you may see 
an error in the log when the server tries to open the device.  The list of 
modules I use is below.
