Is xfce4-settings-helper running? If it is, could you post the output of xsetpointer -l, and attach xpointers.xml from ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/.

And, just to be sure, the other mouse settings are not responding either (left- right-handed etc)?

xfce4-settings-helper was not running. After starting it the mouse settings work.

Same bug here.

running xfce4-settings-helper does make the setting apply.

xsetpointer -l
0: "Virtual core keyboard"	[XKeyboard]
1: "Virtual core pointer"	[XPointer]
2: "Keyboard1"	[XExtensionKeyboard]
3: "Mouse1"	[XExtensionPointer]


Cannot find any  xpointers.xml in ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/

bash-3.1$ xsetpointer -l
0: "Virtual core keyboard"	[XKeyboard]
1: "Virtual core pointer"	[XPointer]
2: "Mouse1"	[XExtensionPointer]
3: "Keyboard1"	[XExtensionKeyboard]
4: "HID 046a:0011"	[XExtensionKeyboard]
5: "DVB on-card IR receiver"	[XExtensionKeyboard]
6: "Microsoft Microsoft IntelliMouse? Optical"	[XExtensionPointer]


And I have a pointers.xml only:
bash-3.1$ cat pointers.xml 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Opened bug #4577 as a result of this. Closing this bug since it's not a problem with the mouse settings.
