Wacom Graphire4 working - but can't paint with mouse anymore

So now my Graphire4 is working fine, but for some reason I'm unable to paint with my mouse in Inkscape and the GIMP while the tablet is activated. I can click and nothing happens. And that only affects the paint area, everywhere else my mouse is working as is should.
When I deactivate the tablet in the "Input Devices" I'm able to paint with my mouse again.

Here's my xorg.conf if that could be the problem:

Re: Wacom Graphire4 working - but can't paint with mouse anymore

I found a workaround for this problem: when I click with the stylus then the eraser the mouse is working again! Until the next login that is.
Very strange ...

Is there a way to automatically simulate a press on the stylus and the eraser? Or any other thoughts?
