# Fix Bluetooth connectivity issues on Arch Linux
#
# Common issues addressed:
# 1. Bluetooth service not running or in bad state
# 2. Missing PipeWire/PulseAudio Bluetooth audio support (A2DP sink)
# 3. Stale pairing data causing connection hangs
# 4. Missing Broadcom firmware (.hcd files)
# 5. Stuck/unresponsive adapter requiring USB reset
#
# Usage:
# ./fix_bluetooth.sh # Diagnose and fix all issues
# ./fix_bluetooth.sh --interactive # Prompt before each fix
# ./fix_bluetooth.sh <MAC> # Target a specific device
# ./fix_bluetooth.sh --interactive <MAC> # Both
#
# Safe to re-run: all fixes are idempotent.
