Try removing the mouse MCS plugin and restart your X session. It looks
like a bug in mac ports of X11 as xfce relies on X11 for these stuff.

By removing the mouse settings MCS plugin, you'll prevent xfce from
adjusting the mouse params which I suspect to be the root of the bug.

Let us know if that helps,

Cheers,
Olivier.
