Bug Description

Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS

Expected:
Wacom pen and mouse should send a middle and right mouseclick in every application. The key assignment should be done once in system-settings.

Instead:
Depending on the application, wacom input devices (pen, mouse...) change the assignment of the buttons. E.g. in firefox (snap) or blender the right wacom mouse button works as expected, in nautilus or libre offce it does not. Changing the system-settings for the wacom devices make it work in nautilus, but break it in firefox.
