Bluetooth not showing any device at all

Hello folks! Mid term linux user here, trying bazzite on my new gaming pc, bought a dongle, and bazzite can't recognise anything apparently.

The bluetooth appears to be on when the dongle is connected, but it can't find any devices when scanning.
Trying to make it work using bluetoothctl gives me "no default controller available" when trying to power on, so I can never scan.

rfkill
rfkill
gives me
 1 bluetooth hci0   unblocked unblocked
 1 bluetooth hci0   unblocked unblocked


everything seems fine here for me.

rpm-osttree status

I think I run an update today, so I'm probably at latest version.
