Bluetooth wireless mouse HPx 4000b paired and connected but not working

ph flag

I'm trying to connect a HPx 4000b bluetooth mouse with Ubuntu 22.04.1

Just looking at the gui settings, the mouse is connected and paired but won't respond when I move it.

I then tried removing it, installing blueman and connecting through that but the same problem persists.

I also looked in the bluetoothctl, listing my devices I can see the mouse but when I try to manually connect from here I get the message

Failed to connect: org.bluez.Error.Failed br-connection-create-socket

I found a post that said to install pulseaudio-bluetooth when you get this error which I tried, but I already had it.

I tried restarting everything then entering

bluetoothctl --> devices: finding the address of the mouse, successfully trusting it, pairing it and getting a message that it was connected, only for the problem to persist. Still no action, I've pasted the code below.

sudo bluetoothctl

Any ideas what else I can do?

I sit in a Tesla and translated this thread with Ai:

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
