Public bug reported:
Hello! I have a strange bug with Bluetooth on Raspberry Pi 4 8Gb and Ubuntu
21.04 (also had it on Ubuntu 20.10). It's internal Bluetooth adapder does not
initialize, if I boot system from USB, wherein does not matter what I am using:
16 Gb USB Flash Drive, 2 Tb External USB HDD or 1 Tb External SSD. After system
boot up, it shows me "no Bluetooth adapters found", hcidev also shows nothing.
I'm getting hciuart.service error:
===================
taras@taras-rpi:~$ systemctl status hciuart.service
● hciuart.service - Configure Bluetooth Modems connected by UART
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/hciuart.service; enabled; vendor prese>

===================
But if I continue reboot system, it may appear in 1-2 cases from 10. It'v very
strange.
If I disable this service manually via:
===================
sudo systemctl disable hciuart.service
===================
restart the system and run:
===================
sudo systemctl start hciuart.service
===================
Bluetooth adapter will appear in 100% cases. And if I boot Ubuntu from microSD
card, everything works properly, Bluetooth starts all times. I thought, mb here
is not enougth power for USB devices. I've bought USB hub with external power,
but it does not help.
Must say, that I don't have this problem on Raspberry Pi OS, I have it on USB
HDD too and it works without any problems.
Any suggestions?
