Since upgrading to 13.10 from 13.04 my mouse no longer connects via bluetooth. In settings it states that the mouse is not paired. Restarting bluetooth with sudo /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart does not help. Restarting the computer does fix the problem if bluetooth is restarted also with the previously mentioned command, but this is not ideal.

The mouse worked fine prior to updating to 13.10.

The computer is a ThinkPad X230 with a Broadcom 'BCM20702A0' bluetooth module (I think).

I am a relative novice with linux so don't ask me compile anything please, but I can use google.
