As I read this, the first thing that pops into my head is that you're not
re-setting the struct timeval. Try setting up strace in the kernel, and
see what happens when you run it.

My guess here (maybe) is a flow-control issue. You might find the
buffer/queue is actually in the mouse, and as soon as you open the device,
the flow-control lets the data come in.
