Bluetooth mouse only works after pairing, but won't reconnect

Ask Fedora

After upgrading to Fedora 41, I am no longer able to get my bluetooth mouse to reconnect, it only works if I remove and re-pair it. Trying to reconnect makes it flap back and forth infinitely

From journalctl:

Hi @pbburke !
Just comparing to my setup and I see you have two differences (in my case they are the opposite):

	Trusted: no
	LegacyPairing: yes

So I’d try in bluetoothctl change to trust F4:73:35:57:F8:EE.
However, looks like LegacyPairing is unconfigurable.

I rarely see connecting issue on 42, but bluetoothctl then power off and power on solves that.

Thanks for your reply! I feel quite silly as I didn’t realize I had a Gnome extension related to bluetooth enabled, Bluetooth Quick Connect. Between setting my mouse to trusted and disabling that extension, it works now!
