I recall having a rash of similar scale while using the wireless mouse 
and keyboard pair with a single dongle, but that mouse eventually 
developed a flaky left button from a broken solder joint because the 
switch was not fully seated against the mouses pcb when it was soldered.

Mice are now being made so opening them up for solder joint repairs is 
going to damage it anyway, so I quit repairing them 3 or 4 years ago.  
Replacing the mouse with a $14 m317 logitek, which has its own receiver 
dongle, seems to have been a permanent cure.
