My bad for not specifying that. The user reports that the Bluetooth device is not recognised at all.

Also, broken_le_coded = true did not "fix" it.

Talking about dmesg, well not getting any logs regarding this message indeed is a frustrating thing for me, and bisecting seems to be the only option in my mind rn.
