That key is probably a special keyboard key and not a mouse button. You
can verify this by running xev. Mouse buttons give ButtonPress and
ButtonRelease events, keyboard keys give KeyPress and KeyRelease events.

Depending on your window manager you might be able to map the key to
something useful like showing a menu or locking the screen.
