See my posting today "RE bluetooth mouse   [SOLVED]" for a fuller
description.  In short, I had tried to set the mouse to a trusted
device using blueman commands such as blueman-manager.  I tried
again but it did not allow automatic connection of the mouse.

Now I tried the "trust" sub-command of bluetoothctl.  It did
succeed in setting the mouse as a trusted device.  And the
mouse automatically connects after boot.
