Ah, I see now.  Because you don't have "USB mouse" in your layout. 
You can have many InputDevice sections, but only those listed in
ServerLayout are used:

Section "ServerLayout"
	Identifier     "XFree86 Configured"
	Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
	InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
	InputDevice    "PS/2 Mouse" "CorePointer"
# Serial Mouse not detected
# USB Mouse not detected
EndSection

Since you only have "PS/2 Mouse" listed, only that InputDevice section is used.

This should work better for you:

Section "ServerLayout"
	Identifier     "XFree86 Configured"
	Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
	InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
	InputDevice    "PS/2 Mouse" "CorePointer"
        InputDevice    "USB Mouse"
EndSection

Cheers,
