X11 and moused

[Infra_HDC]

Hello, all!
Several monts ago, my mouse was stopped working in X11, and was worked agaion after adding moused in rc.conf; this was after a some update.
Today, i was disabled moused and detected, what my mouse still works.
What the matter?
FreeBSD is running as guest into ORACLE VirtualBox 6.1.34, host OS is GNU/Linux.

How is the mouse configured in the Virtualbox settings of the VM? If it's set to "PS/2 mouse" then it would need moused_enable, but if it's set to "USB Tablet" or "USB multi-touch" then moused(8) gets automatically loaded due to devd(8) detecting it.

notify 100 {
        match "system" "DEVFS";
        match "subsystem" "CDEV";
        match "type" "CREATE";
        match "cdev" "atp[0-9]+";

        action "service moused quietstart $cdev";
};

notify 100 {
        match "system" "DEVFS";
        match "subsystem" "CDEV";
        match "type" "CREATE";
        match "cdev" "ums[0-9]+";

        action "service moused quietstart $cdev";
};

notify 100 {
        match "system" "DEVFS";
        match "subsystem" "CDEV";
        match "type" "CREATE";
        match "cdev" "wsp[0-9]+";

        action "service moused quietstart $cdev";
};

notify 100 {
        match "system" "DEVFS";
        match "subsystem" "CDEV";
        match "type" "DESTROY";
        match "cdev" "ums[0-9]+";

        action "service moused stop $cdev";
};

It also matters if you have emulators/virtualbox-ose-additions set up correctly. It will provide the "seamless" mouse experience. The vboxmouse driver gets automatically picked up by Xorg.
