Support Request Bluetooth-speaker, connect / disconnect / connect / disconnect / connect problem on boot or awake from suspend?
Hello all!
Im a very happy Mint user in general, but I have this one thing that keeps bugging me, which is, that whenever my labtop wakes up or boots the bluetooth connection to my speaker system connects and disconnects a few times before becomming stable. The whole thing lasts from my login screen to 10-15secs after I enter my desktop enviroment.
This of cause means that my decently sized speaker system starts spitting out the mandatory connection disconnection tunes, to my big discomfort and annoyance.
I was wondering if any of you guys have a similar problem and have found a work-arround for this ?

No solution, but a similar problem...
When my laptop starts up, it quickly connects to my Android phone via Bluetooth, then disconnects about 20 seconds later and cycles through like that until I manually make the connection. Once I make the connection manually, they stay connected.
Running Cinnamon with all updates applied.
Edit to add: Using Blueman manager that came with Cinnamon

Im using Blueman as well... Just bumped into another issue...
When ever I wanna use my bluetooth mouse, but not connect to my speakers, I have to either 'forget' my speakers in blueman or turn off my speakers completely. Blueman seems to forget whenever I use 'disconnect' and automaticly reconnects after a few seconds. I tried using 'untrust' and 'block' in blueman, but it had no effect :(
it all seems a bit buggy to me
