I use Bluetooth for my headphones and it used to work more or less in Ubuntu 17.10 (had to redo the pairing process sometimes but then it worked out).
After I installed Dash-to-Panel-Extension for GNOME for whatever reason the Bluetooth adapter turned off and won't turn on again.
In my Bluetooth settings it says 'Bluetooth Turned Off'. I can push the button to turn it on, but nothing happens.
Also I can press the "turn on" button in the Panel, but nothing happens.
Things I've tried:
- Deactivating Dash-to-Panel Extension (and restart computer)
sudo service bluetooth startsudo apt-get install --reinstall bluezreinstalled all Bluetooth components with
sudo apt install bluez bluez-cups bluez-obexd gnome-bluetooth indicator-bluetooth libbluetooth3:amd64 libgnome-bluetooth13:amd64 pulseaudio-module-bluetoothDifferent variations of turning the bluetooth switch of my laptop off and on and restarting
rfkill list allOutput:
(so it seems not to be blocked)lspci -knn | grep Net -A3; lsusb; dmesg | grep -i blueOutput:
(again seems not to be blocked)bluetoothctl list
Output:
Now I'm running out of ideas. Are there any other approaches?

Are there any options in BIOS? There isn't anything reported in lsusb results that would be a bluetooth device
– Jeremy31
Dec 8 '17 at 19:19
I checked the BIOS: Under Security --> I/O Port Access I found an Option for Bluetooth. It was "enabled". I clicked it...selected "enabled" again (so basically changed nothing), saved and rebooted. To my surprise bluetooth now was activated in Ubuntu! To my further surprise...my Headset can not be connected now. It is found under devices, but for some reason can't connect.

Dec 9 '17 at 12:34
See if askubuntu.com/a/837732/300665 fixes that. It will likely be needed to use the headphones after every disconnect/reboot because of some stubborn bug
– Jeremy31

For the resulting connection problem with my headset [this] (askubuntu.com/questions/789088/…) worked.
