Intune: Restricting Bluetooth Devices

I'm trying to configure an Intune Configuration Policy to restrict the use of bluetooth devices.  I only want the ability to use BT mice, keyboards and audio headsets.  I added all of the applicable UUID's as documented (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/client-management/mdm/policy-csp-bluetooth#servicesallowedlist-usage-guide and https://www.bluetooth.com/specifications/assigned-numbers/service-discovery) for both "classic" and "LE" however I still cannot get the mouse pairing to work correctly.  For instance, when the policy is set, I cannot use Swift Pair to pair the mouse and if I manually pair it the pairing reports success but the mouse doesn't work.  I am using a Surface Pro X and a Surface Mobile Mouse for testing.  I have about 50 of these to roll out but I will not turn on BT until I can properly control the devices that are allowed to connect.  Any assistance would be appreciated.
