Dear Maintainer,

The problem happens on resume. Only by deleting the mouse from the gnome bluetooth control panel, shifting the bluetooth dongle to another USB port, and re-pairing can I get it operational again.

Here is the hardware at issue. It is attached to an Intel NUC via a USB3 hub, but the same problem happens whether it's directly attached or on the hub.

Yet this problem also happens when I install a different usb adapter.

An ancillary problem is that in the Power settings for the gnome control panel, when I select the Bluetooth "On" and leave the "Power Saving" screen, and return to that screen, it goes back to "Off."

As a workaround, I have placed a script to run on resume as implied by this veyr similar (old) bug on Ubuntu:
