You could try this I'm using a tablet PC so the first line turns off my key board so I nead a blue tooth KB for the second line but every thing work after.
sudo rmmod usbhid
sudo modprobe -v usbhid quirks="0x0930:0x0807:0x0040"
no guarantees as I'm new to linux and the numbers differ, unplugging and replugging the mouse undoes the first line

It didn't help, but thanks for the try.
