Bug Description
I have a Logitech bluetooth mouse (M650) and keyboard (K380, details in the attached log). I almost never power down the laptop: I suspend and resume it.
Sometimes when I resume from suspend everything works flawlessly. Other times, there's a 2-3s "freeze" after just several seconds of input inactivity, during which moving the mouse or pressing keyboard keys gives no response. After 2-3s, all the keys pressed during the freeze suddenly appear on screen.
Restarting the bluetooth service, going to airplane mode and back or turning the mouse and keyboard on and off does not help at all.
The delay makes using these input devices barely usable.

There certainly are Bluetooth errors in the log, and some are kernel related.
I suggest the best thing to do here is to try a newer Ubuntu release like 22.04.1. Because there's a good chance this was a bug in the kernel, Intel firmware, or BlueZ that has already been fixed.
