Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Registered a plain BT mouse.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Used blueman (blueman-applet) to pair the device. Used it for a while.
Let it alone at the desk, came back, mouse no longer works.
Checked the log, used the Device manager of blueman - triggered
"Connect" there and it was stuck for a while and said "IO error".
Tried to upgrade bluez to latest version (before: Sid, now:
Experimental). Restarted blueman. Still not helping. The daemon.log
says:

Dec 25 20:58:56 amerix blueman-mechanism[21764]: Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused

Dec 25 20:59:26 amerix systemd[1]: blueman-mechanism.service: Succeeded.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
a) NOT break down completely after a short break.
b) Tell me, the user, something HELPFUL in the log (what am I supposed
to do with "Host is down"? Which host? What may make it up again?? Which
clues to look for?)
I do not claim that my configuration is totally clean, and I am not
using a fancy desktop environment but hey, with this kind of support
from the tools, I am totally lost.
Best regards,
Eduard.
