I recently brought two Arduino UNO boards and were working perfectly with the previous version of manjaro. But there came a small update after which the Arduino ide itself is not recognizing Arduino boards. However, the system is able to detect the USB connecter.
The return of lsusb is like this when I connect the boards with the issue.

Then I tried other two Arduino boards from two other manufacturers and the lsusb results were as follows.
Arduino UNO(from another manufacturer):

and Generic ESP8266 Module:

Both Arduino UNO(from the other manufacturer) and NodeMCU were able to be detected by IDE. But the IDE failed to detect the generic ESP8266 module and the newly brought Arduino UNOs mentioned earlier. I tried it in an Ubuntu 21.04 machine every board was able to be detected by IDE.
From the logs, it can be seen that the problem occurs only with those boards with a bus device

I tried booting manjaro with and old kernel(5.13) but it still didn’t work.
Is it a OS bug ??or something from the IDE side??
