(the context of this question is within virtualbox, but AFAIK it shouldn't really be different)

I have a Microsoft 5-button mouse plugged in, to which scrolling scrolls horizontally. Any ideas?

xinput list:

⎡ Virtual core pointer                      id=2    [master pointer  (3)]
⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer                id=4    [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ VirtualBox USB Tablet                     id=8    [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ ImExPS/2 Generic Explorer Mouse           id=10   [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ (unnamed)                                 id=11   [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard                     id=3    [master keyboard (2)]
    ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard               id=5    [slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ Power Button                              id=6    [slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ Sleep Button                              id=7    [slave  keyboard (3)]
    ↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard              id=9    [slave  keyboard (3)]

EDIT: This question is a pretty close duplicate of My mouse wheel has stopped scrolling up and down. Could someone possibly mark it as a duplicate?
