I have a Dell XPS 17 (9700) and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and sometimes when I boot up, Bluetooth is off and can't be turned on via the Settings UI (toggle does nothing).
The only thing that helps is a power off and start again (reboot does not help). I have the latest BIOS.
I came across this thread: I can't turn on Bluetooth in Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
But my problem seems to be slightly different. Here are the outputs of the commands that were suggested in the other thread. The last command says "bluetooth service is up", but the UI says it is off and none of my devices work.
sudo dmesg |grep -i bluetooth
