Hi Stefan,
Here is what happens with mouse,
1. When you use the mouse, they are in active mode, and after that they go to sniff mode.
2. Now if continue not using mouse eventually it will disconnect (when it disconnects depends on the sniff Interval, and sniff timeout).
3. When the mouse transitions to Sniff Mode from Active mode one would see Mode change event along with Sniff Parameters which i told you about.
4. Now only after disconnect will you observe that the hid reconnects.
Please read section 8.7 in baseband specification of Bluetooth specs which will throw more light into question which you are posing i.e. if you have access to it.
Or else I can share it with you.
Cheers,
Venu

with my notebook ;) and for the last few years they worked fine
(actually since we worked out the reconnect problem of the
Logitech mx1000, which looked similar, but probably was not).
My collection of two bluetooth mice still work fine and reconnect
quickly IIRC, but I will check this evening.
David, "every time I bring the mouse out of sleep mode", does this mean
the mouse went to sleep, you click the button (or move the mouse) and
it takes 5 seconds to reconnect? If so, could you try if it makes a
difference if you switch off the mouse instead? (wait until it falls
asleep, then switch off and on and check if it reconnects faster. Might
not be easy if this is a mouse that wakes up on movement, then you
probably need to lay it upside down until it sleeps).

I can recommend eneloop rechargeables for BT HID devices ;)
