Arch restarts on connecting with bluetooth

I have just recently upgraded my system and since then encountering this, everytime i connect to my wireless headset or earbuds using bluetooth, the system undergoes a restart at the moment, and after restarting still the device is unconnected.
I have checked with:
```
rfkill list
```

bluetooth's unblocked, any suggestions on how to debug the problem?

Re: Arch restarts on connecting with bluetooth

Please post your complete system journal for the *affected* boot:

sudo journalctl -b | curl --upload-file - 'https://paste.c-net.org/'

-b -1 for previous boot.

Try to ignore the reboot key - but also to connect the BT device from the multi-user.target (no gnome)
