Made no discernable difference for me. :(
This is in my /etc/default/bluetooth:
HIDD_OPTIONS="--connect 00:07:61:35:FE:A9 --connect 00:19:7F:21:EE:73 --master --server"
The mouse, which works, is 00:07:61:35:FE:A9. The other one is the
headset, which I still have to explicitly pair with in order to
connect.
