I have several BT proxies around the house now, but if I unplug the BT dongle from my HA Blue the switchbot button pusher goes offline. It can't be added again unless I plug in the dongle. I can see in BT configuration that the proxies see it. I'd like to get rid of the dongle but this one switchbot just won't let me.

Which kind of Bluetooth proxies are you using?

2 esp32's (esphome sensors with BT lines added), 2 Shelly 1pm and 2 m5 stack atom lite

Do all the esps have active connections turned on and flashed with the latest ESPhome?

Yes and connection_slots: 3

I've been doing some testing and I unplugged the dongle and deleted the integration for the dongle and it's been good for about a day. Hopefully that fixed it.
