Bug Description
I installed 19.10 on my computer which is connected to a KVM switch. The keyboard and mouse no longer work. They worked just fine with 19.04. What am I missing? I don't get any error messages or other indication of a problem....they just don't work.
I even went the route of installing 19.04 and upgrading to 19.10. also did version 18 and upgraded. Same issue. Tried a couple of KVM swtiches. All work fine in previous versions hooked up to a KVM switch, and so do my windows 10 systems and servers.
Since 19.04 is useless without patching I have to settle for version 18 or go to another linux based system like oracle. At some point for long term support 18 will go away and only 19 will be supported. Unless the kvm switch issue is resolved I and a WHOLE lot of others will be moving on to other versions of linux. I can have my business get shut down because of poor testing on Ubuntu's part that mice and keyboards in a data center all of sudden stop working through kvms.
Thank you.

Sorry forgot to add that 19.10 in virtualbox and other VMs seem to work fine. strangest thing I have ever seen.
