more information is needed
… not that I would actually know enough to make recommendations
but it will help others help you
lsusb | grep luetoo
lsmod | grep blue
inxi -E
or, even better:
inxi -Fazy
also, looking at the journal output could help
journalctl -b0 | grep blue | less
scroll through the output with the up/down arrow keys

It looks like you are missing a driver for your device.
I think you need this one:
AUR (en) - rtbth-dkms-git
and for that you need to set up dkms
When I’m on Debian Base Linux with this command.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:blaze/rtbth-dkms
sudo apt update
sudo apt install rtbth-dkms
Works !
see above - I added to my post
but I can’t help you with that for lack of experience
I know how to do it on Arch
never did that on Manjaro
Please explain how it is installed in Arch?
Please
Thank you for helping me
I already knew where to look
but just for you
I asked google for: arch dkms
and got the expected answer as the first hit:
Dynamic Kernel Module Support - ArchWiki
I’d look here in the forum for more Manjaro specific instructions which very likely exist.
