Bluetooth problems / org.bluez.Error.Failed

Hi, i just installed arch on my new laptop and i am having problems with bluetooth. basically from bluetoothctl it won't let me put discoverable on and neither scan on because of an error: org.bluez.Error.Failed

I will add additional information provided by the terminal:

Re: Bluetooth problems / org.bluez.Error.Failed

linux 6.11.4-arch1 with https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/ke … 8f9efbbfcb applied which is a partial revert of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/ke … ec92a0a271 that was added in 6.11.4 and was at least the cause of the issue for @rouelle:
linux-6.11.4.arch1-1.2-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst/linux-headers-6.11.4.arch1-1.2-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst.

6.11 kernels have conflicts with some bluetooth devices, try either downgrading to 6.10.9, upgrading to 6.11.4arch1-1.2 using links above, or downloading lts kernel and headers.
