Bluetooth not finding any device

This change was made by a bot.

I built a test module for your kernel. Install it this way

wget https://launchpad.net/~hanipouspilot/+archive/ubuntu/bluetooth/+files/btusb-lp1506615-dkms_0.1_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i btusb-lp1506615-dkms_0.1_all.deb

If there are build errors, please post them.

Reboot after install. If the bluetooth does not work after reboot, please post output of

dmesg | grep -i blue

wget <url> is a one command.

You're awesome.
Now the bluetooth-led is turned on, and I can find my speaker.
But it won't connect. I used bluetooth-wizard to add the device (put it in paring-mode before).

But it's not connecting.

First try to pair something else, like a phone. And also please post output of

dmesg | grep -i blue

And also try to power off the computer, then power on. Not just reboot.

And also please posy output of

usb-devices | awk '/0cf3/' RS=

This output is needed to send a patch upstream.

Your speaker might need the use of

sudo pactl load-module module-bluetooth-discover

then pair with the device. If you have Blueman installed, you may have to use that command every boot

Great! Just listening to music, thank you very much!
So is there anything I can help you, developing the patch?

usb-devices | awk '/0cf3/' RS=
T: Bus=04 Lev=02 Prnt=02 Port=04 Cnt=01 Dev#= 3 Spd=12 MxCh= 0
D: Ver= 1.10 Cls=e0(wlcon) Sub=01 Prot=01 MxPS=64 #Cfgs= 1
P: Vendor=0cf3 ProdID=817b Rev=00.02
C: #Ifs= 2 Cfg#= 1 Atr=e0 MxPwr=100mA
I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 3 Cls=e0(wlcon) Sub=01 Prot=01 Driver=btusb
I: If#= 1 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=e0(wlcon) Sub=01 Prot=01 Driver=btusb

Should the bluetooth led really be blinking? I think it's blinking at 1hz.
Also there is some lag in music playback, running nothing but chromium, playing from local ssd.

I do not know about blinking, it depends on hardware.

Regarding the lags, etc it can be fixed by

sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/ath9k.conf <<< "options ath9k btcoex_enable=1"

That will be applied after reboot.

So still about the LED:
It's now always on. I even did a rfkill block, but it's always on. Also if I disable using Ubuntu's bluetooth settings...

This should be another report about the led. It is not related to the bluetooth driver.
It can be fixed in a platform module.

Hello Pilot,

how to create a bug report about it?

Thanks for your help!

The same way as you created this bug report

ubuntu-bug linux

You can post a link to this bug there too.

I submitted here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1511131

The fix is committed. It should appear in the next kernel build.
