Rolling back the kernel to version 5.15.7 solves the problem.

Just wanted to add that I have the same issue since an update to 5.15.11. It's also a "Holtek USB Gaming Mouse" according to log. It's mentioned in my kern.log  but the cursor doesn't move.
Physically on the mouse it says model:Drakonia from Sharkoon Technologies

Should be fixed in newer 5.15 releases, please try 5.15.16 or newer.
