Magic Trackpad disconnects often when attached via USB cable and 100% charged

Mac Mini 2018, Sonoma 14.1.2, Firmware 1.9.2 on Magic Trackpad MK203AM/A Model A1535 - with the most recent version of Sonoma 14.1.2 this started happening. It appears that when attached via USB cable, and the Trackpad is at 100% charge, is disconnects and then reconnects when it is touched. This did not happen with 14.1.1 of Sonoma ... And it exhibits the behavior on two different Trackpads.

When the USB is disconnected, the Trackpad stays connected ...

Mac mini, macOS 14.1

It is an apple cable plugged into an apple full size keyboard that is USB attached ( not wireless ) that is plugged into the Mac Mini and it was working just fine for years before 14.1.2 ... prior version was 14.1.1 of MacOS

Yes ... Please read ... This was working 30 minutes before the installation of 14.1.2 ... nothing changed and all the hardware diag processes that I could do have been done ... This is a NEW problem with macOS ... as it was working on 14.1.1 .... The issue does not occur when the Trackpad is less than 100% charged ...
