[SOLVED] How to NOT auto-connect certain bluetooth devices on bluez

So basically every time my computer starts or wakes up it automatically connects to my living room speakers. It's a bit annoying since I'm using these speakers just to play music sometimes andwhen I'm working it always connect to them. Any ideas where I can add device specific configration?

Isn't this for all devices? Am I missing something?

My bad. For singular devices I only know that you can use "bluetoothctl untrust device". This way the autoconnect for it will time out, if you don't ack it.
