I'm currently having an issue with the mouse. It started after one of the latest updates, but not sure if it is related.
At first I thought it was an application issue, but after testing with a simple script something else is revealed. The case is that "mouse down" result in multiple mouse down/up/down etc.
The script, (sorry for the extra clutter with colors), is:
#!/bin/bash
xev -event button | awk '
BEGIN
e = 0;
t = 0;
c[0] = "33[31;1m"
c[1] = "33[36;1m"
/Press/ e = 0; printf "down "
/Release/ e = 1; printf "up "
/time/
printf "%s%8d %sn", c[e], ($6 - t), strftime("%M:%S")
t = $6 + 0
'
Some samples showing the issue:
In reality: 1 down
down 191 51:12
up 16 51:12
down 36 51:12
In reality: 1 down
down 1532 52:21
up 48 52:21
down 16 52:21
In reality: 1 down
down 1580 53:03
up 16 53:03
down 16 53:03
up 1189 53:04 (yes, held down button here as well)
down 18 53:04
Have also seen the same with single clicks, as in, single clicks are spawned as double clicks as two down/up/down/up series of events are sent.
This is not a constant. I can do 10-20 clicks with no issue, then it is an issue for a couple of clicks, not for the next, and then perhaps an issue for the next 10.
My question is how I can further check if this is a software issue or HW issue? I have tried with different mouses, but the problem persist.
Have searched web for bugs but not found any, but google-foo (what ever is left of that) is not the best.

If the issue is still occurring after using different mice, it sounds like a software issue... Have you tried putting the mouse in a different port and testing?

@Peschke: Yes. Have tried several. But the issue prevails, for one, in xve. Secondly It is revealed in different software: FireFox, Chrome, LibreOffice, mpv, VIM, GIMP etc. Perhaps a driver issue? IDK.
