bluetooth: Refusing input device connect: No such file or directory

Hi,

After an update last week I can't pair my bluetooth mouse anymore. I have a Lenovo X1 laptop, with built-in bluetooth. All bluetooth devices I have tried until now have worked just fine.

The problem now, is that when I power my mouse on, and it tries to pair with the computer I get a notification message (gnome shell) asking to grant access. I never had this before. I answer "always grant access" and still doesn't work.

I searched the logs. When I start the machine I don't see any errors on /var/log/everything.log, and systemctl status bluetooth produces the following:

$ sudo systemctl status bluetooth
bluetooth.service - Bluetooth service
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/bluetooth.service; enabled)

After I turn on the mouse, and it tries to pair, I have this on my /var/log/everything.log:

Does anyone have an idea where could be the problem?

Thank you
