Master MX3 scroll doesn't work on boot #508
Description
The scroll of my Master MX3 doesn't function properly on boot until logid is manually started. On every boot, the scroll is very choppy and scrolls a very tiny amount of vertical space. All other customisations I have set up in /etc/logid.cfg work properly on boot (e.g. I bind the back and forwards buttons to change workspaces with keyboard commands, and that works fine), suggesting that the daemon is loading properly. Once I run $ sudo logid, the scroll gets fixed for that session but won't work for the next one.
On boot, if I check the status of the daemon, I get:
~ $ sudo systemctl status logid

At this point, the mouse scroll is broken as described above. Now if I manually run logid, the scroll gets fixed:
~ $ sudo logid
[INFO] Detected receiver at /dev/hidraw8
Checking the daemon status which looks identical:
~ $ sudo systemctl status logid

This happens with the 0.3.3 version of logiops available on Linux Mint 22.1 as well as with a manually compilled version of logiops. Confirming my current version:
$ logid --version
v0.3.5
