Can't connect to my bluetooth headset anymore

I had been trying to connect to my Bluetooth earbuds and it worked on the first time but now after a reboot it just doesn't work. The first time I had some issues and I wasn't actually using

pavucontrol

and

pipewire-pulse

for the audio thing or something like that. Now, after a reboot, when I use

bluetoothctl

it briefly connects to my earbuds but then my earbuds say "Sharing" (from the earbuds itself) and it disconnects. When I try to connect (bluetoothctl connect) it says

Failed to connect: org.bluez.Error.NotReady br-connection-adapter-not-powered

and sometimes says (I think it started saying this right after I restarted the bluetooth module)

br-connection-profile-unavailable

. I have no idea what's causing this but I can assume that after my earbuds make the Sharing sound it is disconnected from the PC because it becomes an audio device instead of a regular Bluetooth device (?)
I am using pipewire-pulse
