This is reported against an old version of Ubuntu and many things has changed since then. Because of that we won't fix this issue however if this behavior repeats on a modern version please fill a bug report against it and we will take it from there.

The mouse is not paired with my laptop. I turn on the mouse then move it around and press its buttons. Ubuntu pops up a dialog asking if it should connect and allows one to always grant this permission. I check the box and accept the dialog but the mouse is not connected. Instead, a few moments later, while moving the mouse and pressing its buttons, the same dialog pops up again... When I manually pair the mouse and the laptop all is well. It just the automatic paring that is failing.
