Edit Human Interface Device Parameters

On my device my Mouse is for some reason detected as a keyboard, see screenshot below.
Nothing major, but kinda annoying. Especially when I get the low battery warning, then it just says keyboard battery low and it is not clear which device is meant.

My hope is this can probably fixed in some configuration file, but where?

This may potentially be of use (related links can be found on the page):

sudo pacman -S solaar

Retated: Manjaro packages - Solaar

However, the bug report linked by @medmedin for your specific device (open, and not addressed in a year) tends to indicate that a new mouse might be easiest solution.

Cheers.
