Perhaps is being blocked somehow, you got the StartNotification I
suppose? Please make sure the object path matches otherwise it won't
work, you may also check how bluetoothctl does handle notifications
since that has been working for a while.

The usual btmon traces and bluetoothd debug logs are normally a good
idea to share since there could be some bug, though Ive been testing
this regularly with bluetoothctl and that has been stable for a while,
at least on master that is.
