I'm using a sennheiser momentum 4 headset with my motherboard its onboard BT.
Everything works perfectly fine, but each time I restart my PC I have to resync my headset.
"Failed to connect" upon trying to connect after a restart.

It's not a HUGE problem but it gets quite annoying after doing it so many times, any ideas how I could fix this?

That sounds frustrating asf. I've got something to forward in a bit, do tell me if it works for you.

"Failed to connect: org.bluez.Error.Failed br-connection-unknown"

#

Is what I get when trying that

#

Always have to hold the sync button on my headset in order for it to connect again

So I've tried reinstalling Blueman and bluez but still no dice. Any other tips?

This indicates an issue with the bluetoothd daemon. Steps are as follows. by default the daemon that handles bluetooth connections on Linux Mint is bluetoothd. Bluetoothd handles org.bluez which is the interface for bluetooth management. An outdated version of bluetoothd could cause this issue.

1.) Check the status, in terminal systemctl status bluetooth

If it is running you will see something like:

Status: Running

(I dont expect it to not be running but this will check the status)

2.) retry connection, if the issue persists attempt to reload the dbus system sudo systemctl restart dbus

3.) Reattempt, if it persists try checking your bluetoothd version

bluetoothd --version

4.) If the version is outdated ie: > 6.0 you should update the daemon.

sudo apt update

sudo apt install --only-upgrade bluez

5.) Check the version again bluetoothd --version

6.) if it is updated restart it sudo systemctl restart bluetooth

7.) this hopefully will resolve the issue so go ahead and try again

If the version is outdated ie: > 6.0 you should update the daemon.
for a small correction, should be "... < 6.0 ...", maybe?

#

#

4.) If the version is outdated ie: > 6.0 you should update the daemon.

sudo apt update

sudo apt install --only-upgrade bluez
