[Bug 1075478] Re: Apple wireless bluetooth keyboard not working after suspend/resume

I ran into the same problem with a no-name "Apple Like Bluetooth Mouse": After suspend, it reconnects just fine, but it doesn't move the pointer. The bluetooth applet shows it as connected, and so does "hcitool con", but X complains in its log that "device file is duplicate. Ignoring." and sure enough, "xinput list" still shows the rodent long after I disconnect it (using its hardware power switch, actually):
⎜   ↳ Apple Like Bluetooth Mouse              	id=13	[slave  pointer  (2)]

As it turns out, if I do "xinput disable 13" while it is disconnected, and then connect it, the mouse connects, disconnects and reconnects normally.
This appears to work across suspends, as long as I follow the advice / workaround in the redhat bug and disconnect the mouse before suspend. If I don't, I end up with another zombie device that needs disabling, but after that (and reconnecting), the mouse is back to normal once more. (I'm at 3 zombies right now.)

Hope this helps some people until the real bug is fixed...
