Description
I have a ThinkPad L14 Gen 3 (AMD) and am trying to use the mouse buttons above the touchpad for games. However, clicking the middle mouse button does nothing (pasting text does work when enabled (including outside of Firefox)). I've tried using an external mouse, clicking the scroll wheel does nothing either. I figured it was an issue with the game itself, but when testing my mouse input on a few sites ((https://www.onlinemictest.com/mouse-test/), https://cpstest.org/mouse-test/) my middle click is not detected. I have middle_button_emulation enabled, but doing a simultaneous left & right mouse click has no effect. However, pressing the button and using the trackpoint does in fact allow me to scroll in any program.
How to reproduce
Relevant part of my config (but feel free to look at the systeminfo output above for the full config):
input {
kb_layout = us
kb_variant =
kb_model =
kb_options =
kb_rules =
scroll_method = on_button_down
scroll_button = 274
follow_mouse = 2
touchpad {
natural_scroll = yes
scroll_factor = 0.2
middle_button_emulation = true
}
sensitivity = 0.2 # -1.0 to 1.0, 0 means no modification.
}

does wev show the event? Maybe you have the middle mouse button bound to something in hyprland?
(Ignore the closing & reopening, was a mistake on my part) Yes, wev does register my middle clicks:
[13: wl_pointer] button: serial: 12280; time: 14270472; button: 274 (middle), state: 0 (released)
[13: wl_pointer] frame
And, I double checked for any bindings I might've had, but I don't have middle click in any binds :(
does it only show "released" or is the "pressed" event above it too?
if both are there, that's a problem with the apps.
You can also try disabling middle click paste in hyprland's config (may require a hl restart)
Y'know what, you're right, I do get both "pressed" and "unreleased" states at the same time, only when I release the button though:
[13: wl_pointer] button: serial: 1623; time: 251982; button: 274 (middle), state: 1 (pressed)
[13: wl_pointer] frame
[13: wl_pointer] button: serial: 1624; time: 252076; button: 274 (middle), state: 0 (released)
[13: wl_pointer] frame
I do have middle click paste disabled now, but still doesn't work normally :(
I'm not too versed in this, but considering I get both pressed & released states at the same time upon release (unlike other keys, where pressing gives me "pressed" and releasing gives me "released" at the appropriate times), could it be something related to input buffers?? I absolutely could be wrong though.
Here is a video, for others to fully get what I'm saying in regards to the press/release output. You probably can't read it due to the quality but you can certainly see 4 lines of output (including the lines saying "frame") upon releasing the middle click button, rather than the typical 2 lines for both press and release respectively for every other key that I demonstrate.

Hi, sorry for the late response, I mean maybe? I'm guessing it's something to do with drivers considering it didn't work with an external mouse either :(
not the exact issue i think, but I have noticed inconsistent behaviour with middle click as well.
sometimes it stops working like 2/10 times clicks just doesnt do anything. I use middle click a lot, for selecting, and pasting from primary keyboard, and closing and opening tabs on firefox vertical tabs. so this happens frequently to me.
