[Bluez-users] hidd --server only finding one device

Hello again,

I've got my Logitech diNovo mouse & keyboard working with BlueZ by
finding them manually with hidd (with '--search' or '--connect <addr>').
But for some reason 'hidd --server' doesn't want to recognize both of
the devices at the same time: When it starts up it will detect whichever
device I use first, and not the other.

In other words, if I start typing on my keyboard after starting hidd, it
will work, but the mouse won't. If I start by clicking the mouse, that
will work, but the keyboard won't. This happens consistently, and the
non-working device will only start working if I first press its little
'connect' button and then manually connect it with 'hidd --connect
<addr>'.

Has anyone experienced anything like this? I can't imagine this is
intended or required behavior; if it can recognize one, why not the
other?
