Some more digging led me to this bug: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=90162 It is about a similar mouse, but the identification is different (0x0063), and keyboard + mouse show up only as one entry due to the wireless receiver). I applied the first set of patches mentioned in that bugreport, and recompiled the kernel, but it did not work (I assume those patches apply especially for the MS Wireless Optical Mouse, although I changed the necessary identification parts in those patches). The only difference I could observe was, that the mouse LED was flickering when moved (instead of beeing steady before applying the patch). In the meantime I found another idea, to try to use the wireless receiver with a USB->PS/2 mouse adapter, and that approach indeed worked! So using the PS/2 connectors for keyboard + mouse for that MS Wireless Optical Desktop seems to be the solution. Nevertheless there is no doubt, that there is a bug in /usr/src/sys/dev/ums.c, so I will send a message to the freebsd-usb mailinglist (or should I submit a bug-report by myself?).
