I own Zowie FK2 mouse and tried to disable acceleration using mouse options panel. Unfortunatelly setting aceleration to 1.0 doesn't seem to work (it was working fine with my old Intellimouse). As workaround I set "flat" acceleration profile in additional Xorg config file:

Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "Kingsis Peripherals ZOWIE Gaming mouse"
    Driver "libinput"
    MatchIsPointer "yes"
    Option "AccelProfile" "flat"
EndSection

I'm not sure how acceleration is set by mouse settings panel, but I can provide help as I own this mouse.

You appear to be using Libinput. As you have discovered, Libinput support here is poor to nonexistent. Fixing that is tracked with https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=383379

As a workarounfd, you can either remove Libinput or configure it via .conf files if you're using Xorg: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Libinput#Configuration
