Use mouse 4 and mouse 5 as back and forward in rdp (win->cinnamon)

I'm just trying to get my mouse back button to work on RDP (win-> cinnamon). But it seems to just send shift+scroll up and I can't change that. Please, how do I get my mouse back key over to my remote session? This is driving me crazy.

This is output of xev -event button when I press it once

ButtonPress event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0x15e00001,
    root 0x119, subw 0x0, time 1205056408, (142,106), root:(1323,740),
    state 0x10, button 6, same_screen YES

ButtonRelease event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0x15e00001,

I can bind b:6 in xbindkeys but it always triggers twice. I tried adding sleep, but that just postpones the command. How do I "dedupe" it or "pause" xbindkeys just to skip second trigger?

My backup strategy was to bind mouse-back-key with AHK in windows to send some key-combo while RDP window is active. But that was a no-go because the modifiers arrived all messed up (or didn't arrive at all)

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
