You could have a mouse with unshielded wiring, some cheap mice give
scant regard to good building practices.  And you could have a tiny
cable break due to metal fatigue.

I was forever getting logs about a mouse disconnecting.  In my case,
it's one of the mice that perpetually goes into a sleep mode when
untouched, this upsets the system, which immediately wakes it up again.
