USB mouse is not recognised (alien.top)

I've had this issue with my framework laptop where the usba dongle for my wireless mouse is not recognised until I take it, and it's expansion card out a bunch of times. This always takes a long time of fiddling and I feel like doing this every single day might damage the expansion slots.

If I run LSUSB the dongle shows up like:

Bus 005 Device 002: ID 32ac:0002 [unknown] [unknown]

Did anyone else have this issue? I have no idea what it could be personally. I'd prefer the expansion slots just work like regular usb ports.

Maybe the dongle or the expansion card are broken? Have you tried the dongle with another device? Does the expansion card work reliably with other usb devices?

In the meantime I concluded that a usb wired mouse worked perfectly first try every time. I'm guessing it's something between the 2 devices that's wrong. I'm just gonna buy a wired mouse I'm done with this
