Hi all, I have a laptop keyboard problem - it fails to reconnect the keyboard on opening after closing.
MS Surface pro 4 with type keyboard. The keyboard connects correctly on bootup or resume from hibernate (when open). Close keyboard (removes power), open keyboard and it no longer works. Requires a reboot (or hibernate/resume) for it it to work again. On opening the keyboard, the kernel detects it, it shows up in lsusb.
