DOSBOX staging: two mice

How to configure two mouse under DOSBox Stagging and Linux?

I follow:
https://github.com/dosbox-staging/dosbox-staging/wiki/Dual-Mouse-Gaming

But on line:
mousectl dos com1 -map

I change COM1 (in first step) onto /dev/input/mice0 and (in second try) /dev/input/mice1 . In both cases it did not working - no matter which mouse I use, It always move first player virtual mouse.

Ok. I use Wayland and it seems I do not have access rights to these pseudodevices. Maybe that's the case?

With that title, I'm just imagining two deer going at it in a forest

Title probably corrected (removed on g letter from stagging).
