Hello Mark,
Not sure if I understood correctly but lets take a look at UPDATING entry:
```
20250730:
The usbhid(4) USB HID driver is now enabled by default, and will be
used in preference to other USB HID drivers like ukbd(4), ums(4),
and
uhid(4). Work on a FIDO/U2F driver and moused(8) is in progress.
The default is being switched now so that we can find and fix any
additional issues prior to FreeBSD 15.0.
To revert to the previous USB HID driver behavior, set the loader
tunable hw.usb.usbhid.enable=0.
```
In my context, on a laptop, I need to use `tunable hw.usb.usbhid.enable=0`
to get console mouse working.
There are some moused changes to support usbhid as work in progress.
Cheers,

It may be that something else needs to be changed<br>

With the line in place, it reverted back to<br>
