Bug Description
- Freshly installed 18.04 (from 16.04, in which everything was working great). This behavior is consistent across several tested applications (firefox, ubuntu desktop, terminal).
What I expected to happen:
1. I right click the touchpad, see appropriate response from relevant application under mouse.
What actually happened:
1. The right click is registered as a primary click, so there was not an appropriate response.
Notes:
1. The two-finger-tap works fine, and generates the appropriate right+click response from all tested apps.

Additional logs enclosed in coming posts (multi-attachments still not supported!?).
The `evtest` events are me alternating between right (first) then left clicks on the touchpad.
In the `xev` events log, I hit the "r" key to identify when I am about to rt+click and "l" as an identifier of when I am about to left+click.
Let me know if I can send along anything else...
