LXC_Debian_Bluetooth

Configuration

Hi,

I’ve tried to run a BL adapter plugged into my Turris Omnia (HA run in LXC container - Debian Stretch). I would like to scan the MiFlora device for the homeassistent. Unfortunately I can’t start BL service, I always end up in this status:

root@homeassistant:~# systemctl status bluetooth
● bluetooth.service - Bluetooth service

I´ve searched on the web, installed recommended libraries. But it didn’t help either. I’ve tried two CSR devices and I connected ASUS BL last time.

Anyone with this experience?

This lxc github issue suggests using a VM instead. (It doesn’t look like Bluetooth support will be added to lxc containers anytime soon.)

Thx.
I´ve spent a lot of time on it. At least now I know the cause.
