You may have to change the ZAxisMapping settings. Most scroll mice will show button 3 click if you press the wheel, and show something like buttons 6 and 7 for rolling the scroll wheel. The problem is that not the button usage in not consistent for anything except the first 3 buttons. You can end up with real buttons 4 and 5, or you can get the scroll wheel as 4 and 5. I have not run into it, but it would not surprise me to find that there are mice out there that reverse the order of the buttons used by the scroll wheel.
