[SOLVED] Attempting to use bluetooth headset with PC

My brother gave me today an USB Bluetooth 4.0 LE adapter so I could use my new AKG YT50BT headset with my PC running Arch Linux. On the package of the adapter it says it supports Linux since kernel 3.0.34 and it has a Broadcom chipset bcm20702a1. So I installed bluez, bluez-utils and the firmware for the chipset via AUR. My issue is that I can pair the headset with the adapter using bluetoothctl but when I try to connect it fails with this error.

I am a bit of a loss here on what do now. According to the wiki this error should mean that the device might already be paired on another OS but I am only using Arch Linux and the adapter hasn't been paired with other device. The headset has been paired with my Hauwei P20 lite phone. Could that be the issue if so how do I fix it?

Re: [SOLVED] Attempting to use bluetooth headset with PC

Are there any other machines around that might be paired with and connected to that headset? Like your brother's phone, tablet, game console or computer? Is your P20 Connected to it?

Re: [SOLVED] Attempting to use bluetooth headset with PC

No the bluetooth on my phone is off. I only use the bluetooth on the phone when I am out and about and then I use the headset with it. I checked my PS4 and it isn't paired with it.

Re: [SOLVED] Attempting to use bluetooth headset with PC

I just tested the headset on my old laptop both with the internal bluetooth module and the bluetooth adapter and both cases it works fine. It pairs and connects to the headset and I have sound through it. So I am a bit stumped to what is causing this not to work on Arch. My laptop is running Solus OS BTW.

Re: [SOLVED] Attempting to use bluetooth headset with PC

There have been some  bugs in the bluetooth LE kernel stack recently, which kernel are you on (and FWIW which kernel on solus)? If it's not the current stable try updating your system and verifying on that, current changelog shows some fixes in that regard for 5.1.15.

I am on 5.1.15 on Arch and I am on the latest stable of everything in Arch currently. On Solus I am using 5.1.14.

Re: [SOLVED] Attempting to use bluetooth headset with PC

Looks alrightish, FWIW to rule out the kernel regressions can you try on 5.1.14 on Arch as well?

Re: [SOLVED] Attempting to use bluetooth headset with PC

Is there a way for me to install 5.1.14 easily? I don't have it cached on my machine.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Linux_Archive -- pay attention to potentially also needed to downgrade third party kernel modules.

Holy moly you where right. I downgraded to kernel 5.1.14 and rebooted and tried to reconnecting the headset and now it connects. So there is a breakage of Bluetooth 4.0 LE in the 5.1.15 kernel. Should I bug report this upstream or just here on Arch? Many thanks for your help BTW.

Re: [SOLVED] Attempting to use bluetooth headset with PC

Can see that there is a bug report already upstream and here on Arch plus there is a temporary patch out as well. Here is the link to the bug report on Arch for those interested:

Re: [SOLVED] Attempting to use bluetooth headset with PC

So there is a breakage of Bluetooth 4.0 LE in the 5.1.15 kernel.

Technically, the headset does not use LE (Low Energy).  The Bluetooth 4.0 specification details LE mode, but does not require that it be present in products that conform to the specification -- it is optional.
There are no LE profiles that have the bandwidth to support streaming audio.

Just being pedantic
