Bug Description
lsb_release -rd: (Note: I get the same behaviour in kubuntu 12.04 and kubuntu 12.10)
Description: Ubuntu Raring Ringtail (development branch) <- running kubuntu 13.04
Release: 13.04
To reproduce:
1) Plug in the USB dongle
2) Wait for the headset to connect
As soon as the headset connects (e.g. after connecting the USB dongle) the application which currently has focus will be the only one which receives left mouse click events. This happens in both GNOME3 and KDE4.
Alt+(Left,
Left click does affect keyboard focus.
Scrolling the volume wheel on the headset down acts like a middle click and scrolling up like a left click.
Synergy also stops being able to move the mouse outside the current screen as soon as you click inside the host screen.
The window decorations (including the window which has focus) stop recieving mouse events.
(Expected behaviour is unaffected mouse behaviour and headset volume wheel functionality)
It is possible to move a window around by doing:
1) Connect the headset with the window active
2) Left click and drag outside of that window
3) The window will be moved as if you were Alt+Left click dragging from inside the window.
4) A second left click will move mouse focus to the window below but will not move that window above the one which previously had focus

Mouse click behaviour breaks as soon as the headset reconnects.
Workaround:
Running: modprobe -r usbhid; modprobe usbhid; temporarily fixes mouse click behaviour (but not the volume wheel clicking).
The mouse click problem comes back when moving an audio stream to the headset via kmix.

Mouse click behaviour returns to normal immediately.
Occasionally the headset will start working as expected (volume wheel affects system volume, mouse behaviour is normal) but unfortunately I have not been able to work out how to reproduce this.
