What does that mean? The controller or the device? Can you initiate a
scan? Does it find any devices? Is pairing broken or just connecting?
Was the device paired before or after the breaking change? *What* device
are you trying to use/pair?

What do these commands say?

$ bluetoothctl show
$ bluetoothctl devices

Since the kernel isn't logging any errors, have you looked at syslog to
see what the whole userspace side has to say? If an operation is failing
*something* should be logging an error.

*Please*, we need proper detailed bug reports if you want this to get
fixed. I'm sure you're aware of what a reasonable bug report is. Please
teach your user how to provide useful information. Otherwise yes, it's
going to be on you to bisect it since there's nothing we can do with
zero details and useful logs.
