I had the same problem and had to change my protocol from "Logitech" to
"wsmouse" manually in the XF86Config file before it would work properly.

This is what mine looks like:

Section "Pointer"
    Protocol    "wsmouse"
    Device      "/dev/wsmouse"
    ZAxisMapping 4 5
#ZAxisMapping for mouse wheel support
