Bluetooth mouse input is broken on iPhone/iOS 16 and 17
I have connected a Bluetooth mouse to my iPhone and the RD Client App shows "connected" on the settings screen. If I connect to an RDP session the onscreen keyboard keeps popping up and can't be dismissed.
On iOS 17 no mouse input seems to be handled at all.
On iOS 16 any mouse input is handled by the onscreen keyboard. If I push a button, I see the keys press. If moving with the button down, I see the sliding trace on the keyboard. The mouse cursor in the RDP session does not move or handles mouse clicks.
The expected behavior is that the mouse movement and clicks are controlling the remote host's cursor in the RDP session.
Tested on:
Devices: iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 14 Pro
OS: iOS 17.0.2, iOS 16.6.1
RD Client: 10.5.1, 10.5.2 Preview
Mouse: Logitech MX Master S2, Logitech MX Vertical
