BluetooTh keyboard and mouse stops responding when system is locked
Dell lattitude D630, BT 360 module installed. D/Port Advanced Port Replicator, using a Dell OEM Bluetooth keyboard and mouse bundle. I am using the included Bluetooth Dongle in the D/Port Advanced Port Replicator. I am doing it that way because the D/Port is also used as a a dock for troubleshooting other notebooks.
I have our systems set through GPO to lock the workstation after 15 minutes. Whenever this occurs, the Bluetooth keyboard (through the Bluetooth Dongle) quits responding. I have to connect a USB keyboard to unlock the notebook. Once unlocked the external Bluetooth dongle, mouse and keyboard work fine. I have turned off the internal Bluetooth for testing and it still happens. I have manually locked the workstation (using CTRL ALT DEL > LOCK WORKSTATION) and after 5 minutes it still responds. I will test it for longer periods later.
Any ideas?
