VMWare Player 5.0.2 won't start with Bluetooth Keyboard connected

Hi

 

I'm using VMware Player 5.0.2, on a Windows 8 host.

 

If I have a Bluetooth Keyboard connected to the host, no virtual machine will start. I get  the same error each time:

 

'cannot find a valid peer process to connect to'

 

But if I take the Bluetooth Keyboard away, then everything starts just fine.

 

Guest operating systems are Vista and Windows 2003. They are all the same in this regard - same error.

 

The error happens really quick - to the extend that the log files are not updated.

 

Latest version of VMware tools is on the guest.

 

Any help gratefully appreciated. I can't use the machines without a keyboard, and this is on my tablet computer which I need to be portable. Please note the issue here is with the keyboard, if there is no Bluetooth keyboard the machines act like they should.

 

TIA, Pete
