After reinstalling my system (SSD died. I reinstalled from the latest ISO at time of writing), I am now unable to use my PS4 controller trough Bluetooth (wired it works fine, but doesn’t work with Bluetooth)
- I’ve tried both the plasma bluetooth panel and bluetoothctl
- I’ve tried resetting the controller by pushing the hidden reset button for five/ten seconds
- The controller does work, it pairs fine with my phone
- The Bluetooth on the computer works, it connects to my Bluetooth headphones (though now it also has some issues with audio dropping every few seconds)
- Yes, I’ve read the Archwiki on Bluetooth devices (and followed this thread https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=270465)
- Yes, I’ve updated the system in the last 2 day
- Yes, I’ve looked many times at the bluetooth and pipewire process to see they are running
- I’ve tried installing the
bluez-utils-compatandbluez-plugins-ps3packages
Some of the information I could get
In the bluetooth process there is this error entry
set 03 11:35:59 woods bluetoothd[21431]: src/service.c:service_probe() input-hid profile probe failed for 41:42:2A:76:00:F3

# Do reverse service discovery for previously unknown devices that connect to

# - device: A device in device privacy mode is only concerned about the
# privacy of the device and will accept advertising packets from peer devices
# that contain their Identity Address as well as ones that contain a private
