Hi!
My instance of Home Assistant has been working flawlessly until recently.
Now 2 issues presented themselves:
- I’m unable to restart HA from “Developer tools” → “Restart Home Assistant”. Frontend shuts down and does not start back. The only way to get HA running again is by restarting the whole VM.
- BLE integration works for some time after restart and then crashes. From restart if works from 10 minues to couple of hours - I get the sensor updated and everything’s fine, but then it stucks. I can see following in the log:
2023-11-03 17:13:37.320 ERROR (Thread-3) [custom_components.ble_monitor] HCIdump thread: Something wrong - interface hci0 not ready, and will be skipped for current scan period.
2023-11-03 17:13:37.321 ERROR (Thread-3) [custom_components.ble_monitor] HCIdump thread: Trying to power cycle Bluetooth adapter hci0 00:22:EC:06:5E:A2, will try to use it next scan period.
Not sure if these two issues are related to each other.
Would appreciate any advice.
Environment:
Everything is updated to the latest available versions.
HA runs in a VM on QNAP NAS. USB devices are passed through.
The Bluetooth dongle I use is StarTech USBBT1EDR4 (CSR8510A10) from the " KNOWN WORKING HIGH-PERFORMANCE ADAPTERS" section in Bluetooth - Home Assistant
