I do not think that that is the problem. Yes that can cause problems and ther eis a patch out there where you can set edge or leve triggering.
I believe that there is some type of data coruption happening in the kernel buffers but I have no proof of that. I have tried changing my interrupt from edge to level and even to XT-PIC and that did not stop the mouse from going bezerk, and also since this is happening on UP machines as well where all the interrupts are ... are XT-PIC it cannot be related to the edge or level triggering.. it COULD be related to some common code shared by all that gets called more by the edge triggering however..
