On further analysis, the BT mouse problem probably has nothing to do with Fusion. The mouse won't connect randomly upon wake from sleep and in the trials that I kept track of there was a correlation between running Fusion prior to having the mouse become "lost". I now have cases were the mouse isn't detectable by OS/X Leopard even when I haven't run Fusion, so I don't think Fusion is the culprit. This now looks like a Macbook/Leopard problem. I'm sorry for any confusion.

I certainly did try the things suggested in earlier threads. This is a logitech V470 BT mouse and no, I didn't install any software with it. It will work fine for weeks at a time until I run a guest OS and then put the machine to sleep. I usually suspend the VM. I haven't tried shutting down the guest completely before putting the macbook to sleep.
I'm having this same problem. Bluetooth devices such as a mouse will fail after Fusion is run with a MS Vista guest OS. I'm not using BT within the guest, so the USB/BT icon is not "connected"....

I'm having this same problem. Bluetooth devices such as a mouse will fail after Fusion is run with a MS Vista guest OS. I'm not using BT within the guest, so the USB/BT icon is not "connected". The BT device becomes non-communicative after the Fusion session is suspended or terminated and the macbook is put to sleep. Upon wake up, the mouse will not connect. A soft boot does not solve the problem, but a hard boot (power cycle) does.
