Keyboard and Mouse Stop Working after boot and inactivity for about 2 min

Samuelseggs · 9 July 2021 04:51

Hello,

I have a wierd issue with my computer.

On startup, Everything runs perfectly well. However after a while, Keyboard and Mouse stops working but not entirely.

I can still move the mouse around and select different windows and even open applications, However i cannot drag windows or right click to see options

On my keyboard (External or Onboard), I can toggle the Caplock button and see the lights come on. But i cannot use any other keys.

Using the mouse, I’m able to log off or suspend and when i login again, everything seems to run fine.

I use an external Apple Keyboard connected via bluetooth

Here is what i tried.

I boot into older kernel 5.4.124-1 via the grub, However issues persist
I also download another kernel 5.12.9-1 via Manjaro Settings Manager and boot into this, However issues persist

Please what other information do i need to provide

Add the following kernel parameter to your /etc/default/grub file somewhere behind
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="

btusb.enable_autosuspend=n

Afterwards, run

sudo update-grub

and reboot.

Does this happen with other input devices or is it just your bluetooth ones?
