Attempted to pair a new input device. (bt keyboard) and bluetooth-properties crashed with the following error message:

This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library.

** ERROR **: Out of memory

Aborted (core dumped)

Crash is reproducible and will always happen if you wait to type in the authorization code when attempting to pair the device.

strace attached. Willing to test anything please advise if helpful. using hidd a s a workaround until resolved as explained here (#191704)
