Scrolling, swipe left/right not working on Magic Mouse

[efktd]

So all of a sudden, the entire multi-touch top surface doesn't scroll or swipe left/right. But it still recognizes the 2 finger tap for mission control, clicks, and has cursor movement. Has anyone had this problem?

Take your mouse and roll around the ball on a piece of paper to get the dirt out.

Sounds silly, but it works ultimately.

Same damn problem. No solution. Anyone else?

Do you have MagicPrefs installed? If not, get it (it rocks). There's a setting in there where you can enable/disable scrolling in various directions. I accidentally discovered this the other day when I wondered why scrolling wasn't working no matter what I did.
