Usually, in a case like this, we assume that the problem is with the "amiga" system. Is it possible that something has changed with whatever other machine is hooked up to your KVM switch?
For example, my KVM switch uses PS/2 connections for mouse and keyboard. I share mouse, keyboard and monitor with my MicroA1 and a pc. It worked just fine with our old HP pavilion pc, but recently we hooked up a different pc in place of the HP. Sometimes on bootup, the new pc does not see the mouse. It is a Logitech optical mouse with USB/PS/2 compatibility with a green USB/PS/2 adaptor. If we move the mouse to a USB connector on the pc then it works just fine with the pc with the keyboard and monitor still hooked up to the KVM switch.
I haven't experimented much to see how often it occurs or to figure out what causes the problem. I can run both MicroA1 and pc at the same time, flipping back and forth between them. I usually boot up the MicroA1 first. My wife sees the problem when she is using the pc alone. Both machines are usually powered off when not in use. She uses Windows programs not amiga stuff, so she does not power up the MicroA1.
