I have Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse and I want to connect them to my laptop using a dongle. But it is not shown in bluetoothctl and therefore I cannot pair or connect. The system is fully upgraded. What should I do?

Did the logitech keyboard and mouse come with a USB dongle? If they did, it is likely the keyboard and mouse is hard coded to that dongle

Yes, that is probably the case.

The keyboard and mouse is detected by the kernel, are they listed in
xinput

Would be helpful to know which keyboard and mouse we're talking about.

Logitech MK240 according to the stack exchange question

I don't know what happened but now it works fine, automatically pairs and wakes up on boot or return from sleep. The controller is listed in bluetoothctl and in xinput. This is so nice! Thank you guys and have a good day.
