Bluetooth toggle not working in Ubuntu 21.04

[andrew robinson]

After updating my OS from 20.10 to 21.04 the Bluetooth service remains turned off even when I turn the toggle switch on.

The toggle is not working, neither from the top bar dropdown menu nor from the settings window. Switching on the toggle did not have any effect.

I have tried using these commands in the terminal:

sudo modprobe -r btusb
sudo modprobe btusb

They worked once, then when I toggle off and toggle on bluetooth it remains turned off. I have restart the system for the commands to work again

I also tried from the terminal:

sudo systemctl restart Bluetooth

Again it did restart the bluetooth service but if I toggle off and then on again bluetooth service remains off. As before I have to restart the system for the command to work.
