I thought this was strictly event device availability - we need to make
both mouseemu and pbbuttonsd report details about the device scan. I have
mouseemu starting before pbbuttonsd with no ill effects. I recall I added
event devices up to event11 to work around this.
Waiting for Guido to report back on this before I try any further hacks
