Pinebook Pro wants a PIN for my bluetooth mouse

Hello PineBook Pros,
I have had my PineBook Pro for five years now. Ordered November 2019. It's been a useful lightweight laptop for me which I've carried all around the US and even Europe, and Africa. A few months ago I thought it was dead because, even plugged in, the power would not come on no matter if fully charge and pressing buttons. A couple weeks ago I came back to it and miraculously just turned right on. Oh well, here's my problem now.
It wouldn't pair with my bluetooth mouse anymore. I deleted the device and tried to re-pair it. Now it wants a PIN code! There never was any PIN code for this mouse. Here are the details:
Manjaro ARM Linux, 24.03
Fenifox Bluetooth Slim Mouse (I love it and have 2 of them)
Any ideas on how to get it to stop asking for a PIN? I'm not good with fingers and trackpads.
