I recently installed ubuntu 20.04 and bluetooth seemed to work out-of-the-box. Yesterday, it stopped working with no known reason.
I can turn it ON but the settings still show it to be OFF.
I tried the following:

$ sudo -i
$ rfkill list
0: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
3: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
and on running bluetoothctl
,
Agent registered [bluetooth]# power off No default controller available [bluetooth]# power on No default controller available [bluetooth]# exitWhat could be the problem and how to tackle it ?
