I'm not sure if that actually disables libinput, and you don't need to do this anyway.

Ah I see, it does TakeDevice then ReleaseDevice instantly.

Are you seeing messages in sway output that say something about e.g. a mouse not being tagged as a mouse etc.?

I don't remember if I said this in the original post, but you need to have the kern.evdev.input sysctls (they're not there yet in 12.0, but should be in 12.1) and an up to date libudev-devd (from github.com/FreeBSDDesktop) that uses them.
