mouse back button brings up run command box after sending "back" command

mouse back button brings up run command box after sending "back" command

Relevant, didn't help much though.
I've got a RAT 7 that I'm using in Ubuntu. It's working fine, but for some
reason when I hit the "back" button it will output Alt Left and then bring
up the 'run command' box. Alt Left looks like "^[[1;3D" in bash. In Chrome
it will send the "back" command to the browser, then bring up the run
command box, like it's hitting Alt Left then Alt F2. Well not exactly like
Alt F2, the box looks similar but is smaller, it's just the text box.
You can see what happens after I click the back button here:

I've tried using xinput test but it doesn't seem to be capturing.
I'm running Ubuntu in a VM. I have a right/left wheel on the mouse as well
and it is working fine. I've tested the back button in the mouse's config
and it's not outputting anything other than Alt Left.
It's not a big deal but I would like to fix it.
