I think I have the information on this issue. The left button may not
work because the mouse generates a constant pressing a service button,
e.g., as described here (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/+bug/615892/comments/13).

my mouse have "hidden" button 20-21-23, that "click" when I switch
profiles (see attachment for evtest log, problem events 287-288-289).
when all button is released, then mouse work as expected. in other
cases, left button does not work anywhere else, although its operation
can be seen in xinput, for example.

I was able to get out of situation just by turning off the service
button in the xorg.conf (writing zeros in their place):

Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "Mouse Remap"
...
    Option	"ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 4 5 0 0 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 0 0 0 0 0"
...
EndSection

Title:
  Left mouse button stops working

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  This  problem has plagued me for a few years across different laptops
  and Ubuntu versions. Current I am experiencing this on a Dell Inspiron
  15z running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

  It typically starts after I have used the chat or call feature in
  gmail, by clicking on the phone icon in the left chat margin. I am a
  Firefox user and have not tested this with chrome etc. It has not
  happened if i dont install google-talkplugin so it is quite possible
  that the plugin is to blame.

  Symptom
  =======
  The left mouse button on all attached mice - USB , Trackpad and touch - will not do anything .... however the right mouse button continues to work.  This happens to all applications and also to the desktop. The keyboard continues to function as normal.

  When this occurs , my solution is to Alt-F4 close all windows and log
  out of the X session. When I re-login the left mouse button works as
  normal.

  
  This is an irritant and work disruptor as I have to save all browser and desktop applications to  safe state before I logout to reset the mouse. I will appreciate any soltion or workaround.
