[SOLVED] Bluetooth not appearing on device list

[Tim Curtis]

This is the error I get on a moOde 9.1.5 player on a Pi 5B when I turn off Bluetooth in Startup options and reboot

Code:

20241214 214742 worker: Bluetooth:       Error: Unable to start Bluetooth, PIN: None, ALSA/CDSP maxvol: 100%/0dB, ALSA outmode: Standard

Just saying....

Lokks like some breakage :-0

See if bluetooth is blocked

Code:

pi@moode9:~ $ rfkill
ID TYPE      DEVICE      SOFT      HARD
0 bluetooth hci0   unblocked unblocked
1 wlan      phy0   unblocked unblocked

Add the line below to /etc/rc.local

Code:

/usr/sbin/rfkill unblock bluetooth > /dev/null 2>&1

It's definitely blocked by default on a 920 image. I'll have to patch rc.local for that build and then make a new image for testing.
