Public bug reported:
I do have a Dell XPS 13 7390 laptop running Ubuntu 20.04:
Linux martin-XPS-13-7390 5.11.0-38-generic #42~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Tue Sep 28
20:41:07 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
with Intel bluetooth card. dmesg recognizes it as:
usb 1-7: New USB device found, idVendor=8087, idProduct=0029, bcdDevice= 0.01
usb 1-7: New USB device strings: Mfr=0, Product=0, SerialNumber=0
It uses the btusb driver:
usbcore: registered new interface driver btusb
The driver / chip has problems to connect / pair with some headsets / speakers.
Namely the Sony SRS-XB12 Mini speaker and the Teufel True Airy Wireless headset.
Pairing other speaker devices with the XPS works fine and the Sony and Teufel
itself pair fine with other linux laptops / android smartphones. I'd like to
concentrate on the Teufel, as I have logged the pairing conversation.
It looks like this on btmon:

So it pretty much looks like the laptop sends a connection request, but
never sees a reply from the Teufel headset.
Same conversation for a Surface Pro 3 laptop (with some broadcom
bluetooth chip if I remember correctly, also using btusb driver) also
running Ubuntu 20.04:

What could cause the Intel 8087 / 0029 bluetooth chip / driver not being
able to connect to the Teufel speakers?
There is also another report with a similar problem here:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1020584/apple-keyboard-a1016-pairing-fails
How to further debug this problem?
Is it necessary to buy some bt sniffer hardware to get to the bottom of this? I
would invest in a cheapo 10€ CC2531 clone sniffer (like this
https://www.amazon.com/-/en/dp/B081WRGL31) but I am not sure if they are
sufficient to capture the pairing process.
