Issues

• 2.4 wireless mouse on boot won't work properly unless dongle is reconnected
  Not reproducible with clean Nix Gnome setup
• xremap KBs to launch apps causes very weird behavior in Gnome with user mode Probably should wait until proper nixos implementation
  Or move to Hyprland: 1
• xone dongle does not enter pairing mode
  Probably can be fixed by overlay or patch including pull request code
• analog-input-internal-mic had +30db gain on Internal Mic Boost Volume, alsa state config asset is not working
  Probably can be fixed with pipewire/wireplumber config
