Can you try:

sudo apt update

sudo apt install linux-generic-hwe-20.04.

sudo apt upgrade

sudo systemctl start bluetooth

sudo rfkill unblock bluetooth

Reboot and test.

device added successfully, but failed to connect

  • what my result is. Failed to connect from rfcom

oof... Is this a specific device that is failing to connect or ALL Bluetooth on your computer that is not working?
What you describe sounds like specific device. Or Rpi.

Which means a lot of hoops to jump through:

There are no solutions there - now what? what is weird is blue tooth mouse and keyboard do automatically work - though not recognized.

@ERZ , I am sorry but, this is not a helpful reply. You do not specify why you think it is not a solution.
You did not really answer the question I asked in the previous post.

Troubleshooting issues is not always easy; especially over such a wide variety of systems. The help you provide is as important as the help you receive.

It seams to be headphones - any type - have several, tried all - none work - the conversation and suggested commands did nothing .

But peripherals do work. This implies a sound issue, rather than a bluetooth issue.
Have you checked your default sound output?

Now mentioned - I have external line-out - which is fine, but does not change when I get a device to pair and connect for 30 secs or so - perhaps system not recognizing new sound distribution via blue tooth, and that disconnects it - perhaps why it fails? Thank you for your time.

Would I try this in windows, Bios, or where in Zorin?

Got a linux blue tooth dongle, installed, and ran - no software - problem solved!
