I am jusing Manjaro XFCE version.
My bluetooth keyboard when my computer is rebooted will keep saying connected and disconnecting. In order to connect back, i have to set my keyboard to pairing mode then connect.
They keyboard that I am using is the Keychron K8
I have set AutoEnable to true in /etc/bluetooth/main.conf as well.

on a fresh boot when ever i try to enter a key on the bluetooth keyboard i just get a connected prompt followed by a disconnected prompt, nothing registers.
I have to open bluetooth manager and set the keyboard to pairing mode then connect it.
Either disable power management on the bluetooth device wiha TLP, or remove tlp package all together and see if the issue persists.
It seems that Keychron firmware needs to have very specific sequence of actions in order for bluetooth to work. This is how it should be in the exact order:
scan on in bluetoothctl)pair <mac> in bluetoothctl)connect <mac> in bluetoothctl)trust <mac> in bluetoothctl)This works but for some reason blueman kills the bluetooth signal when the screen is locked, keyboard disconnected, or system goes to sleep. But once you turn it back on the keyboard connects automatically. I can live with that! Thanks!
