Sorry to persist, but the drivers usually have "xf86-*" in their name not 
"x11" or "xorg", e.g. xf86-input-evdev.

(The category of those packages is of course x11-drivers/ ; i.e. x11-
drivers/xf86-input-evdev)

Other than that could it be a udev issue and some permanent rule for a USB 
type of mouse, which you should remove and restart udev?  Don't know, just an 
idea.
