Prevent mouse from waking Mac from sleep

Does anyone know a fix on how to prevent a usb peripheral (ie mouse) from waking my Mac from sleep? Or is this inherent in the design of the OS?

I am using a wireless RF mouse and any movement will wake the Mac from sleep, regardless if it's in the clamshell mode or not.

Thanks in advance.

Edit: You know, sometimes Google just outright scares me. I was doing a bit of research on the above topic and not even 3 minutes after I post the above post, I find this thread on Google (cached too). Freaky!

 

You could unplug the USB device.

If it was a bluetooth mouse you could change the settings so it wouldn't wake the computer. I don't see anything on disabling a USB device though. Hopefully someone will have an answer for you.

 

Ughh, this problem has been around for as long as I can remember. My mac mini wakes up when I turn off the Epson printer attached to it by USB. Go figure.

There isn't the equivalent of "Disable Wake on USB" per device like in Windows.

 

Apparently Apple keeps the USB powered in sleep mode so you can still charge your iPod :|

You could always turn your mouse upside down

 

Thanks for the replies everyone. Honestly, it's not too huge of a deal, it's easy enough to turn off the mouse, but I'd thought I'd inquire in case there was a quick fix that someone found. I've tried bluetooth, but wasn't a fan of the lag (after 5 seconds, the mouse would go into a power saving mode = lag). Anyways, thanks again and +rep for all
