I think that is a bug in the GTK HID as well, as I've not touched any of
that code. It would be a good one to get fixed though!

Hmm, that works for me. I'd need more detailed steps to reproduce to
test whether it occurs here as well or not.

(Please ensure your check-out is up to date. I've not knowingly fixed
any bugs which relate to this issue, but it is always useful to know we
are testing vaguely the same code!)
