Wild thought: how good is the battery level in the mouse?
75% right now. The problem happens the same whether 15% or 90% on
Fedora, and never on macOS.



I have occasional blips with my BT mouse in KDE (using a Broadcom
dongle) especially after resuming from suspension (not so much for
hibernation). They fix themselves when I pull the dongle and reinsert
it, or use a second mouse to click on the KDE BT widget Connect button.
I've never been able to figure out what's going on.
There's definitely a conflict. On a clean reboot with both WiFi and
Bluetooth left on at reboot time, the mouse/keyboard never connect. I
have to turn off the WiFi radio itself, and then boom, Bluetooth
devices connect pretty much instantly.

The disconnect from Bluetooth seems to coincide with the WiFi radio
disconnecting from on AP MAC address and connecting to a different AP
MAC address. This laptop does this disconnect/reconnect routine
exactly every two minutes, always, to the second. I'm guessing it must
be unique behavior to its WiFi firmware. A nearby Intel NUC also on
Wireless doesn't behave this way, it goes hours or even days connected
to one of those two APs.

Both bluetooth and wifi use the 2.4GHz frequency band. If you have
dual-band wifi, try using a frequency in the 5GHz band. Failing that,
try to get your wifi to use a different channel. That may clear it up.
This is always going to be an issue.
I have had this issue as well for EVER :)
I simply stopped using BT.
