I have had some progress with this issue. Either something in my system
has changed (I got a batch of updates this morning) or I have just
explored the behaviour more thoroughly.

When I make the headset by pressing the button on the side, it turns the
audio channels on. I can see this even in
/sys/kernel/debug/usb/usbmon/0u as follows:

Turn headset ON:
ffff88012c4d6f00 1619795766 C Ii:3:002:3 0:2 5 = 04200413 08
ffff88012c4d6f00 1619795950 S Ii:3:002:3 -115:2 64 <
Turn headset OFF:
ffff88012c4d6f00 1623377775 C Ii:3:002:3 0:2 5 = 04200452 08
ffff88012c4d6f00 1623377969 S Ii:3:002:3 -115:2 64 <

If I loose the click handler when the headset is active, it comes back
when I turn the headset off. I think this is new behaviour, but I can't
be sure if it was just that I did not notice this previously.

When the click handler is lost, I can still see the click events show up in: 
/sys/kernel/debug/usb/usbmon/0u
Mouse button Down:
ffff88012c9b4600 1817445838 C Ii:4:002:3 0:2 15 = 20010201 00000000 00000000 
000000
ffff88012c9b4600 1817445948 S Ii:4:002:3 -115:2 32 <
Mouse button Up:
ffff88012c9b4600 1818011837 C Ii:4:002:3 0:2 15 = 20010200 00000000 00000000 
000000
ffff88012c9b4600 1818011944 S Ii:4:002:3 -115:2 32 <

But the clicks don't seem to be picked up by the window manager.

Another odd thing I noticed is that the problem does not happen if I turn the 
headset on while my cursor is hovered over the desktop background. 
If the mouse cursor is hovered over my terminal window, and it is displaying 
the I-Beam Pointer instead of the regular pointer, then I loose the click 
handler.


That's all I have for now. If anyone wants me to try more tests or gather more 
information, please give me some instructions. 

Thank you.
