Bluetooth stopped working X570
I've been using Bazzite for about a week and suddenly tonight the Bluetooth stopped working. I'm running an X570 Aorus Pro WiFi and installed Bazzite with defaults. Not really sure what to do, desktop mode shows the Bluetooth as disabled and I couldn't get it to power on in terminal either. It says no controller.

boot an older image and verify its actually a regression in bazzite (or rather bluez, again or something) a then stay on that image and wait for upstream to fix if it is not possible for us to do anything.

Thank you, will work on this tonight.
This worked. Now on OS build F41.20250215
most likely a bluez regression then
can you try figure out the bluetooth chip in your machine?
Having the same issue. Rolled back to 41.20250201.1. Still not working.
I’m using a trigkey s5 mini pc with Bluetooth 5.2, not sure if that helps
Rolled back to 41.20241216. Didn’t work at first, I was using systemctl reboot. I tried doing a shutdown and restart which then made it work
are you dual booting?
I shouldn’t be
wanted to ask since that description sounded similar to how you would fix wifi cards being in a weird state when dual booting with windows as windows tends to put certain wifi cards in a dumb state when rebooting
and since wifi and bluetooth is often bundled together, i figured it was worth an ask in case it was related in your case
@HikariKnight I’m having the same issue again and image rollback is not working for me so far. I’ll keep trying to brute force it
Solved
sudo systemctl restart bluetooth
What Bluetooth chip do you have? My laptop has an Intel 8260 and this sounds like the issues I was having. I used to have a script that I ran to load and unload btusb, but then I turned off auto suspend with a kennel module config file based on this and haven't gotten any issues since

I’m not entirely sure what chip is in it, I’ll look into it
The only info I can find online is that it has a “802.11ax” chip which I think is the wifi chip but could be both?
i don’t think that’s it, 802.11ax is the standard for wifi 6, not the chip model itself
i have just experienced this exact issue too as of a couple of minutes ago
nothing will connect, and trying to add a device only has this
i have no idea what happened but it just fixed itself???
this has been my experience as well, i usually just run modprobe commands to disable and enable BT, when that doesn’t work i do a cold boot, that usually works
