It's probably another symptom of the "console user" not being properly
accounted for so the devices retain ownership by root instead of the
user of the X session. See
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6885612 and
related bugs.

Sounds plausible .... however, like the comment in the CR, the workaround
of explicitly putting myself into the Console User profile didn't work for
me either.

disconnected from the X server's perspective. It would be useful to have
the contents of /var/log/Xorg.0.log from when the problem occurs
(switching the KVM and back) - this is renamed to Xorg.0.log.old if you
have restarted X.

Here are the last few lines before the point where I switch away
from the machine:

(**) mouse: always reports core events
(**) Option "StreamsModule" "usbms"
(**) Option "Device" "/dev/usb/hid1"
(II) mouse: Setting Buttons option to "8"
(==) mouse: Emulate3Buttons, Emulate3Timeout: 50
(**) mouse: ZAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5
(**) mouse: Buttons: 9
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "mouse" (type: MOUSE)
(**) mouse: (accel) keeping acceleration scheme 1
(**) mouse: (accel) acceleration profile 0

Then I switch away and this happens:

keyboard: Device no longer present - removing.
(II) UnloadModule: "kbd"

Then I switch back and get this:

(II) config/hal: Adding input device keyboard
(**) keyboard: always reports core events
(**) Option "Device" "/dev/usb/hid0"
(II) keyboard: Opened device "/dev/usb/hid0"
(**) Option "XkbRules" "base"
(**) keyboard: XkbRules: "base"
(**) Option "XkbModel" "sun_type6_euro_usb"
(**) keyboard: XkbModel: "sun_type6_euro_usb"
(**) Option "XkbLayout" "gb"
(**) keyboard: XkbLayout: "gb"
(**) Option "CustomKeycodes" "off"
(**) keyboard: CustomKeycodes disabled
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "keyboard" (type: KEYBOARD)
(**) Option "StreamsModule" "usbkbm"
(--) keyboard: Keyboard type: USB (6)
(--) keyboard: Keyboard layout: 0

And finally, FYI, when I log out the server exits and logs this:

(**) hotkey_events_fini: succeeded
(II) UnloadModule: "hotkey"
(WW) mouse: cannot pop module 'usbms' off mouse device: Invalid argument
(II) UnloadModule: "mouse"
(II) UnloadModule: "kbd"

Actually, I didn't notice before, but the mouse module isn't being
unloaded when I "unplug" it by switching KVM ports.
