Package: bluez
Version: 5.49-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

Trying to make a BT mouse work. Your documentation did NOT help. The
mouse was reported and I could connect it but mouse was not responsive. I
found https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bluetooth#GNOME_Bluetooth
instead.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

I run the commands from Arch Linux in bluetoothctl console and then my
mouse started working. But not for long. On the next reconnect of this
mouse it was dead.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

Mouse was NO LONGER WORKING. When I moved it, I got this pointless
messages in bluetoothctl console. And no hint WTF is going on.

[CHG] Device DC:2C:26:ED:CB:8D Connected: yes
[CHG] Device DC:2C:26:ED:CB:8D Connected: no
[CHG] Device DC:2C:26:ED:CB:8D Connected: yes
[CHG] Device DC:2C:26:ED:CB:8D Connected: no
[CHG] Device DC:2C:26:ED:CB:8D Connected: yes
[CHG] Device DC:2C:26:ED:CB:8D Connected: no

Finally I guessed it might be the "default-agent" command missing. When I
run it, it asked me again for some confirmation, I had to enter "yes"
again, and then the mouse started working again. Looks like this
(although covered with the stupid spam from above).

[bluetooth]# default-agent
Default agent request successful
[CHG] Device DC:2C:26:ED:CB:8D Connected: yes
Authorize service
no): yesagent] Authorize service 00001124-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb (yes/n
[CHG] Device DC:2C:26:ED:CB:8D Connected: no

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

That it remembers what i told it before and makes it work again on the
next reconnect. Do I have to run this action every time? SERIOUSLY? Open
the console and run bluetoothctl and default-agent command?
