It appears that you do have Bluetooth hardware (Ralink corp. RT3290), but it is turned off:

2: hp-bluetooth: Bluetooth
 Soft blocked: yes
 Hard blocked: no

Maybe it's staying off because the kernel driver isn't up to scratch yet in 18.04, or missing firmware. To test this theory please try installing a newer kernel from:
