I had a similar but possibly stranger experience on Friday and haven't 
booted back into F9 (x86_64) since. I booted into F9 to see if there 
were any updates on Friday morning, and found that there weren't any. 
But I discovered my audio wasn't working, which hasn't been too unusual, 
so I unplugged a couple of USB device which PulseAudio has in the past 
tried to use as the default audio devices, and rebooted. My cordless 
mouse stopped working at that point. The thing that makes this really 
strange is that the mouse is a part of the Logitech Wave Cordless 
Desktop package that has worked flawlessly for me for months, and the 
keyboard continued to work. Without any updates or related configuration 
changes, I can't see how the mouse would just stop working, nor did it 
start working again after I plugged the two USB devices back in.
