Have you switched your pen into relative mode? The pen and eraser
devices both default to absolute mode, which is not affected by the
acceleration properties (since it is a 1:1 mapping between the
physical position of the pen and the displayed pointer position). You
should run `xsetwacom set <id> mode relative` for both the pen and
eraser devices if you want the command you provided to have any
effect. I've tested your command after switching my pen to relative
mode and the pointer movement slows down as expected.
