- you are able to pair your Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 but it refuses to connect with message (what?)
-if you reinstall extkbd/extmouse/libbtui-hid (which effectively restarts bluetoothd, nothing more) you are able to connect your mouse. What about other devices?

Please clarify on the above so both of us are on common ground. And please clarify do you have any custom setting for bluetooth/X/(whatever may be related).

And could you please test following - while you have keyboard and sixaxis connected, remove pairing with mouse and re-pair it again.
Well - the status is that the mouse is not working - i'll explain:
from a clean state (no bt backage, no extkbd, no extmou) - i install extkbd and extmou.
at this point i can connect both mouse and keyboard but not the joystick (i get the dialog issue).
after executing in terminal:

/opt/usr/bin/btinputplugin disable
stop bluetoothd
start bluetoothd

or installing your package and executing "/opt/usr/bin/sixauth 00:06:F7:08:8E:08" which restarts the bluetooth, the keyboard and the joystick are working, but mouse doesn't anymore - cannot connect to mouse message pops up.

i tried connecting the mouse while the DS3 is connected and i am still getting the error and the mouse won't connect. the exact error message i'm getting each time i try to connect is: "Connection failed to Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000".
