I recently built a new desktop PC and I've been having trouble getting bluetooth working. Previously it was running, but not pairing to headphones. Occasionally it did pair but the sound was choppy, and it would not remember the device and so pairing was very inconsistent. In trying to fix it today I updated bluez and blueman and now I have a new problem; bluetooth won't start at all.
When I try to run blueman-manager, I now get the following error:
blueman-manager version 2.1.2 starting
blueman-manager 11.02.18 ERROR Manager:118 on_dbus_name_appeared: Default adapter not found, trying first available.
blueman-manager 11.02.18 ERROR Manager:122 on_dbus_name_appeared: No adapter(s) found, exiting
Bluetooth is definitely enabled in my BIOS. Some other commands and outputs:
$ systemctl | grep -i blue
