Might be of better help there.

I wouldn't edit kexts on a true Mac, I would make sure all updates are current and that the aftermarket Items used on the Mac Pro are compatible with that desk top.

Sounds like a range problem, try the bluetooth adapter in a front usb port to make sure that isn't the case.

Did anyone manage to resolve this issue?

I've just bought a Belkin Mini Bluetooth Adapter which works perfectly on my Hackintosh until it goes to sleep.

I've edited my IOBluetoothFamily.kext to include my vendor and product IDs. This enables the wake from sleep option in the Bluetooth settings, but it doesn't actually allow my Magic Mouse to wake the computer (strangely my wired Apple keyboard won't wake it either).

Once the computer is out of sleep, the mouse won't work even though it's apparently connected. The only way to re-enable the mouse is to remove and replace the Bluetooth adapter.

I can't tell at this stage whether it's my motherboard, the adapter or both at fault. When my computer goes to sleep, it seems to power down the USB ports. This may explain why the mouse is unable to wake the machine. When it powers up again, the Bluetooth adapter doesn't re-initialise properly.

Would I have better luck with a different adapter? I only spent £7 on this one so it's not the end of the world.

I had the same issue as you described. Even though I could use either my wired Apple keyboard, Apple Trackpad or Magic Mouse to wake the computer, the mouse and trackpad showed some weird behaviour after waking up from sleep.

I solved this by adding a wakeup script that disables the Bluetooth radio for 1 second after waking from sleep. It's a minor annoyance that I can live with... The instructions and required files are described somewhere earlier in this thread.

You could try different adapters. I also had a $1.50 eBay one that worked fine, but it was a little bit bigger than the Belkin (which fits nicely into my wired Apple Keyboard). The eBay one (CSR based rather than broadcom) worked fine after waking from sleep, though didn't try if I could manage it to allow Bluetooth devices to wake the computer.

I have exactly the same issue (I have the DBT-120 rev B3). I did not manage to update the firmware though (message: no supported device found) but now I know that that probably would not have resolved it. It works fine when I use the trackpad without the wireless keyboard.

I ordered the Sabrent Micro Wireless to replace it as that seemed the easiest solution: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002SBF108/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00

Hello,

I believe I have a fairly old Bluetooth dongle, something to do with bluesoleil or other rubbish, never really worked until Windows 7 or til I tried in OS X. I simply plugged it in and I was able to connect my magic mouse and apple BT keyboard. Obviously allow devices.. is greyed out.

I have looked in system information and attached a print screen of the bluetooth section, my vendor ID is listed as 0. Is there any help for this?

Update:
Under System Information/USB I have found the vendor ID of my device. However, performing the hack in this guide does not work. Possibly to do with it being CSR? But I do not know if it is.

Vendor ID: 0x0c10
