Bluetooth Stopped being Detected today after System Update

Hi, Bluetooth stopped working on my PC after system update. Wifi is working though, so I'm assuming the antenna should still be working, bluetooth is the only thing no longer detected now. Motherboard: ASUS ROG Strix B850-I Gaming WiFi AMD AM5 B850 Mini-ITX mITX Motherboard Is there anything I could try or simply rollback?

Mine also stopped working, kinda figured it would since another distro stopped working the other day and I went back to bazzite/bluefin for it to work. My board bluetooth comes from: Network controller: MEDIATEK Corp. MT7925 (RZ717) Wi-Fi 7 160MHz My board is an AsRock B850 LiveMixer WiFi I found a stackoverflow thread that had an answer, but it was something weird like fully shutting down the machine and removing AC power, basically a 1990s reboot + avoiding certain kernel versions

Currently rebasing to stable 41 to see if I can get it back up again Thanks for your reply. I think mine is the same Bluetooth controller.

the quote at the bottom is the bit about rebooting. I am going to try this now on this system and see, be back soon!

Same! Trying it now. Another user in #🎮bazzite also mentioned doing this too https://discord.com/channels/1072614816579063828/1087140957096517672/1392017415230980177

OK, reboot, power, it back! Soo I think i had sleep on by default, so perhaps suspend/resume is breaking it?

No problem. Now I wonder if we can contribute something back so nobody runs into this.

Can confirm this does work. Had same issue, bluetooth broke after latest update, wifi still worked fine. Power cycling worked like a charm!

Yeah, I ran into this again today, seems like I really need to cut the power for a while to get the wifi card to reset itself or something.
