Is there already another device paired with your Google nest mini speaker, by any chance?
Hi Nate, Many thanks for getting back to me. My phone is paired to my speaker, but I always disconnect it before trying to pair my speaker to my PC. Mind you, this problem has only started happening recently and never existed before. If it helps at all, I have updated to the following software/os versions now as part of Fedora updates: SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS OS: Fedora 41 Kernel-Version: 6.11.5 KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.7.0 Qt Version: 6.8.0 Graphics Platform: Wayland
Thanks! I'll let folks who know more about Bluetooth take over from here.
Thanks Nate :)
I'm afraid I'm having the same problem with my XBox Controller. I'm getting br-connection-create-socket error in Bluetooth config screen.
This is the log from bluetoothctl in regards to my XBox Controller [bluetooth]# [CHG] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 Connected: no [bluetooth]# Failed to pair: org.bluez.Error.AuthenticationCanceled [Xbox Wireless Controller]# [CHG] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 Connected: yes [Xbox Wireless Controller]# [CHG] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 Modalias: usb:v045Ep02FDd0903 [Xbox Wireless Controller]# [CHG] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 ServicesResolved: yes [Xbox Wireless Controller]# Failed to connect: org.bluez.Error.NotAvailable br-connection-profile-unavailable [Xbox Wireless Controller]# [CHG] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 ServicesResolved: no
I managed to connect my XBox Controller via bluetoothctl. I though this log might be useful for debugging: [bluetooth]# remove 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 [bluetooth]# [DEL] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 Xbox Wireless Controller [bluetooth]# Device has been removed [bluetooth]# power on [bluetooth]# Changing power on succeeded [bluetooth]# scan on [bluetooth]# SetDiscoveryFilter success [bluetooth]# Discovery started [bluetooth]# [CHG] Controller 34:CF:F6:24:D7:9E Discovering: yes [bluetooth]# [NEW] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 Xbox Wireless Controller [bluetooth]# list Controller 34:CF:F6:24:D7:9E bluedream [default] [bluetooth]# [CHG] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 Modalias: usb:v045Ep02E0d0408 [bluetooth]# [CHG] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 UUIDs: 00001124-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb [bluetooth]# trust 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 [bluetooth]# [CHG] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 Trusted: yes [bluetooth]# Changing 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 trust succeeded [bluetooth]# pair [NEW] Device 20:44:41:7C:E0:76 P016 SkyQ LC103 [bluetooth]# pair 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 Attempting to pair with 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 [bluetooth]# connect 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 Attempting to connect to 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 [Xbox Wireless Controller]# [CHG] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 Connected: yes [Xbox Wireless Controller]# default-agent [Xbox Wireless Controller]# Default agent request successful [Xbox Wireless Controller]# connect 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 Attempting to connect to 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 [Xbox Wireless Controller]# Failed to connect: org.bluez.Error.InProgress br-connection-busy [bluetooth]# [CHG] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 Connected: no [bluetooth]# Failed to pair: org.bluez.Error.AuthenticationCanceled [bluetooth]# [CHG] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 WakeAllowed: yes [Xbox Wireless Controller]# [CHG] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 Connected: yes [Xbox Wireless Controller]# [CHG] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 Modalias: usb:v045Ep02FDd0903 [Xbox Wireless Controller]# [CHG] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 UUIDs: 00001124-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb [Xbox Wireless Controller]# [CHG] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 UUIDs: 00001200-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb [Xbox Wireless Controller]# [CHG] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 ServicesResolved: yes [Xbox Wireless Controller]# [CHG] Device 5C:BA:37:59:A0:72 Paired: yes Please let me know if you need any details and I'll happily send you whatever logs you need.
Fixed this by resetting Google nest mini speaker.
