[Bug 1094744] Re: MS Sculpt Touch Mouse needs to be re-paired periodically

Originally I indicated that the problem occurred after suspend, but now
I realize that this isn't true. It depends entirely on how long it's
been since you last used the mouse. It can reconnect after a suspend if
you resume soon afterwards.

Also, I notice that in the bluetooth settings it indicates that the
mouse is not paired when this issue occurs.

** Summary changed:

- MS Sculpt Touch Mouse needs to be re-paired after suspend
+ MS Sculpt Touch Mouse needs to be re-paired periodically

** Description changed:

- When the machine suspends, or you don't use the mouse for a long enough
- time, the mouse disconnects and won't reconnect. I have to go into
- bluetooth settings, remove it, and re-pair it.
+ When you don't use the mouse for a long enough time, the mouse
+ disconnects and won't reconnect. I have to go into bluetooth settings,
+ remove it, and re-pair it.
  
  1)
  ~ % lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS
  Release:	12.04
  
  2)
  ~ % apt-cache policy bluez
  bluez:
    Installed: 4.98-2ubuntu7
    Candidate: 4.98-2ubuntu7
    Version table:
   *** 4.98-2ubuntu7 0
          500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
  
  3)
- I expected my mouse to reconnect much like my bluetooth keyboard does. Or at least to reconnect when I select "connect" from bluetooth settings.
+ I expected the mouse to reconnect automatically, or at least after I try to reconnect manually through the bluetooth settings.
  
  4)
  I have to re-pair the mouse in order to use it again. Turning the mouse off and on doesn't work either.
