Summary:
If the dock is set to autohide, and a Mad Catz R.A.T 7 Gaming Mouse is attached, moving the mouse to the bottom of the screen to reveal the dock does not work. While the R.A.T 7 mouse is attached, trying to unhide the dock with my macbook's built in trackpad or a different USB mouse does not work. Unplugging the R.A.T 7 mouse restores normal dock behavior.

R.A.T 7 Gaming Mouse website: http://www.cyborggaming.com/prod/rat7.htm

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In dock preferences enable the "Automatically hide and show the Dock" option
2. Plug in a Mad Catz R.A.T 7 Gaming Mouse
3. Try to unhide the dock by moving the mouse pointer to the bottom of the screen.

Expected Results:
Dock should unhide

Actual Results:
Dock does not unhide

Version:
10.10 (14A261i)

Notes:
Only workaround is to disable autohiding the dock when the Mad Catz R.A.T 7 Gaming Mouse is attached.

I also noticed that if I drag a file from the finder to the dock, the dock does unhide normally.
