After looking around online for some time trying to come across a  solution that worked for me, I stumbled across the post above about  using metacity --replace. So, based on that, I was pretty certain that Compiz  was the root of my mouse issues. After playing around with Ubuntu  Tweak, one of the menu options, "Enable Metacity's compositing feature",  mentioned that I had to manually disable visual effects in appearance.
So,  after disabling Visual Effects  (System>Preferences>Appearance>Visual Effects then select  None), the mouse is suddenly working again. I don't know if this will be  a permanent solution or if it will start giving me problems again, but I  thought I'd mention this solution.
