It doesn't always; it's broken for some mice in woody's X. It was
fixed some time before 4.3 though.

The reason for the breakage was not sending a reset command to the
mouse. If it doesn't work for you, iterate through the protocols by
hand and reset the mouse yourself:

  echo -ne '\377' > /dev/psaux

before trying a new protocol.
