Hello! I’m using a Macbook Pro 2015 with an external display and a magic mouse that has a magic keyboard. These devices are very basic. Recently, after sleeping at the login screen and pressing the first key to enter my password, the magic keyboard became slow and the interface started showing a growing number of dots, as if it was stuck on the same key. This made it hard to type my password correctly. When I turned off the keyboard and then turned it back on, everything functioned properly again. This issue only appears after a sleep—something that happens after a MacOS restart or shutdown—and never occurred while using the OS elsewhere. I tried it with a Macbook Pro 2011 running High Sierra, which worked fine after sleeping. The keyboard seemed okay. I used Filevault and disabled it, thinking it might help since Logitech warns about problems when mx master Bluetooth is enabled during login. Do you know what’s causing this? Thanks!

It's not a problem with this particular setup. The bluetooth keyboard on iMacs with Bluetooth usually works without issues. It only appears to have trouble when the device goes into sleep mode. This seems to be related to software, a bug, or a configuration setting.
