[SOLVE] Bluetooth Unable to select SEP after update

After updating, when I connect my bluetooth headset, it shows this

[bluetooth]# connect 28:52:E0:FF:64:16 
Attempting to connect to 28:52:E0:FF:64:16
[CHG] Device 28:52:E0:FF:64:16 Connected: yes
Failed to connect: org.bluez.Error.Failed
[CHG] Device 28:52:E0:FF:64:16 Connected: no

I check the status of bluetooth

Jun 21 01:29:18 duy bluetoothd[355]: Endpoint unregistered: sender=:1.71 path=/MediaEndpoint/A2DPSource/sbc
Jun 21 01:29:19 duy bluetoothd[355]: Endpoint registered: sender=:1.75 path=/MediaEndpoint/A2DPSink/sbc

Jun 21 01:43:04 duy bluetoothd[355]: profiles/audio/a2dp.c:a2dp_select_capabilities() Unable to select SEP

I try

pulseaudio -k

But it's not working

pactl load-module module-bluetooth-discover

Does not work either
I have been searching this and there are some suggestions that this is related to new linux-firmware or intel bluetooth firmware.

I follow https://github.com/bluez/bluez/issues/157
Problem is with /var/lib/bluetooth folder
I remove it and reconnect, everything works fine now

Re: [SOLVE] Bluetooth Unable to select SEP after update

Got the same problem. And after downgrading bluez to 5.58 and removing /var/lib/bluetooth the problem solved.
