I stand by what I said before. After that comment, I did only these four
steps:
1. Install Ubuntu on a clean partition.
2. Pair and connect using the Bluetooth UI in the Ubuntu desktop (BT icon →
Bluetooth Settings). In other words, use normally.
3. Immediately (not sure if it makes any difference), list the device address
using bluez-list-devices (see output at the end).
4. Issue the following command:
sudo bluez-test-device trusted 30:59:B7:73:B6:C6 yes
Done. It works indefinitely. I can confirm that.
The output of bluez-list-devices:
[ /org/bluez/776/hci0 ]
…
Address = C4:17:FE:(hidden)
…
Devices = dev_30_59_B7_73_B6_C6
…
[ /org/bluez/776/hci0/dev_30_59_B7_73_B6_C6 ]
Product = 0x07a2
Services = dbus.Array([], signature=dbus.Signature('o'),
variant_level=1)
Class = 0x000580
Alias = Microsoft Sculpt Comfort Mouse
Icon = input-mouse
Blocked = 0
Connected = 1
Address = 30:59:B7:73:B6:C6
Version = 0x0129
UUIDs = 0x1000 0x1124 0x1200
Name = Microsoft Sculpt Comfort Mouse
Adapter = /org/bluez/776/hci0
Trusted = 1
Vendor = 0x045e
Paired = 1
I still have a few problems with the mouse wheel (sometimes it stops
working briefly). Also, the connection takes 3 to 5 seconds to
reestablish (perceptible after returning from a suspend), but other than
that it works fine, and, most importantly, the connection is kept
between reboots and suspends.
