I can't invoke my bluetoothctl anymore. It waits for connections withouth success showing this in the terminal:



me@mashin:~$ bluetoothctl 
Waiting to connect to bluetoothd...


Any suggestion how to start the joyful debuging?



I am using Debian 9.2.



Edit



Output of sudo systemctl status bluetooth.service



● bluetooth.service - Bluetooth service
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/bluetooth.service; enabled; vendor preset

I had the same problem. I found a solution on archlinux.org's forums.



I had to load the kernel module btusb.
To test if this will solve the problem for you, run as root :



modprobe btusb
systemctl start bluetooth


then test if bluetoothctl works. If it does you can make this fix permanent by loading the module on boot. To do that on Debian add (as root) the line:



btusb


at the end of the file /etc/modules.



You might also want to ask systemd to enable the bluetooth service on boot, in this case execute (as root):



systemctl enable bluetooth
