Are you sure both PHYSDEVPATHs contain "00:02.0"?
Anyhow, let's dig into this a bit deeper...
- go into text console mode (e.g. tty1)
Well, I changed my rule per your advice:
BUS=="usb", SYMLINK+="mouse1", SYSFS{manufacturer}=="Logitech",

If I login (gnome session), then the above key combination works.
But from the gdm/xdm screen (before login) it does nothing.
