For what it's worth the Report Descriptor is a little questionable

This physical collection is associated with Generic Desktop:Pointer (0x0001:0x0001)

We are now in the Button page

>0x09, 0x01,                    //  Usage (Consumer Control)           60

This physical collection is associated with Button:Button 1 (0x0009:0x0001)
not Generic Desktop:Pointer (0x0001:0x0001)

>0xa1, 0x00,                    //  Collection (Physical)              62

>0x05, 0x01,                    //   Usage Page (Generic Desktop)      68

Now we're back in the Generic Desktop page
