When I chvt to a text console and back, dmesg shows

It seems that chvt back and forth is sufficient.

It doesn't seem ToI or hald related. After inactivity for 10 minutes
or so X also loses the BT mouse and I need to perform the chvt trick
to get it working again.

Restarting BT doesn't help. BT *is* working properly, the mouse is
detected, it is X that doesn't want to see the mouse anymore until I
switch VTs.

Yes.
