[Bug 1550050] Re: repeating phantom key when bt disconnects

 

** Description changed:

- using mako, every no and then when having bt mouse/keyboard connected - you will see when selecting a text box there is a repeating character (there is no specific character, but always repeats)
- it seems to be related somehow to bt devices disconnecting
+ Every now and then when having bt mouse/keyboard connected - you will
+ see when selecting a text box there is a repeating character (there is
+ no specific character, but always repeats)\
+ 
+ It seems to be related somehow to bt devices disconnecting
  the only cure is a reboot
+ 
+ This was reproduced by turning off the keyboard while holding down a
+ key. We suspect the key up event is never delivered. This mimics the
+ case where the BT connection drops off momentarily or perhaps an event
+ is missed over the BT connection.
