This might be USB-autosuspend. 2 seconds seems to match the default
delay for autosuspending USB devices.

Have a look at the values under /power/ for your USB devices.
(probably the port to which your mouse is connected and/or the mouse
itself).
Check if disabling USB-autosuspend helps.

Compare the output of:
  grep . /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/power/*
for the time your mouse can move your pointer and when it can't.
Also change the autosuspend delay or disable autosuspend for the
mouse.

See also in your kernel sources:
  Documentation/usb/power-management.txt
  Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-usb
