@Brian Burch - You might get more run time if you minimize the bt device manager window instead of closing it after pairing (assuming that you are using blueman device manager.) I find kernel 4.5 works a little bit better with bluetooth. kernel 4.3.6 works like I'd expect with bluetooth, if you don't need the newer kernel features.
We are describing is a kernel bug. I have the same bt connectivity issues using Manjaro. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1490349 Title: 15:10: bluetoothd reports "Not enough handles to register service" at start Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: On 15:10 after the bluetooth service has been stopped and restarted it is not possible to scan or connect to devices: $ sudo systemctl start bluetooth $ journalctl --unit=bluetooth | tail -n 19 | awk '{$1="";$2="";$4="";print $0}' 23:31:53 systemd[1]: Starting Bluetooth service... 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Bluetooth daemon 5.33 23:31:53 systemd[1]: Started Bluetooth service. 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Starting SDP server 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Bluetooth management interface 1.9 initialized 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Failed to obtain handles for "Service Changed" characteristic 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Not enough free handles to register service 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Error adding Link Loss service 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Not enough free handles to register service 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Not enough free handles to register service 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Not enough free handles to register service 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Current Time Service could not be registered 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: gatt-time-server: Input/output error (5) 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Not enough free handles to register service 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Not enough free handles to register service 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Sap driver initialization failed. 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: sap-server: Operation not permitted (1) 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Endpoint registered: sender=:1.440 path=/MediaEndpoint/A2DPSource 23:31:53 bluetoothd[16647]: Endpoint registered: sender=:1.440 path=/MediaEndpoint/A2DPSink And $ bluetoothctl [NEW] Controller 00:1F:3A:E0:0A:AF hephaestion.lan.iam.tj [default] [NEW] Device 00:0A:95:4B:BD:C2 Apple Wireless Keyboard [NEW] Device 00:07:61:3B:86:98 Bluetooth Travel Mouse [bluetooth]# scan on Failed to start discovery: org.bluez.Error.NotReady To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/1490349/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
