I have no idea what the problem is, but I assume that it is because of
the reconnect feature of the mouse. I will always try to reconnect when
you move your bag and after some failed retries it may deadlock itself.

On the other hand there is maybe a small race when you shutdown the
machine and disconnect every device. May a "hciconfig hci0 noscan"
before calling "hidd -K" will help.

Regards

Marcel
