I have the same keyboard and mouse combo and I had the same issues constantly
until I purchased a shielded USB extention cable and brought the USB
transciever up on top of the desk near the keyboard. It seems to me the range
of the bluetooth signal doesn't allow it to go through the wood of my desk.

Hope this helps.
