As both the mouse and the ua25 share the same power and earth and don't provide any sophisticated main-filtering or shielding, you are bound to get such problems. Probably the noise doesn't occure when you use the touchpad. Does the ua25 come with a power-adaptor? Could be that removes the noise. Another more hackish thing to try is to make an extra usb-cable where the data-lines go through but Vcc and maybe even GND are disconnected and the power is feed from an external source. Have fun, Arnold
