To repeat: there is no password. This is a mouse. Not all BT devices
use keys and I have never been asked for a password (key) for this
device. I've even unconfigured the device and re-installed it. It still
didn't ask for a key. I've also (separately) removed and re-inserted
the dongle. On insertion I get this in dmesg:

i.e. there's a problem loading the firmware. This happened in the past
and then stopped, but is now happening again. Googling for the error
message led me to instructions for updating the firmware, all of which
I followed last time this happened.
I've reported it to Bugzilla:

BTW, this is the dongle:
