I'm using lightdm 1-10.5-6 on el7 and I notice my bluetooth keyboard
connects at system startup (verified via ssh and running bluetoothctl) but
the keyboard won't type on lightdm.

I set up a systemd service to make sure the device always connects (via
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/bluetooth_keyboard) and made sure the
devices was trusted. But no matter what I try the keyboard appears to be
connected to the system but won't type in the username or password fields
in lightdm.

I tried with gdm and the keyboard works fine there. I searched the
changelogs for 1.17 and tried to look through some bugs but didn't see any
information about this issue. If anyone knows a patch or bug that this is
fixed in please let me know.
