Cannot enable bluetooth on kde neon

Help
1

After installing KDE Neon, I’ve encountered an issue where Bluetooth cannot be enabled. I’ve taken several steps to troubleshoot the problem, including updating the system, checking the drivers, and installing BlueMan. However, despite these efforts, I am still facing the same problem.

This isn’t the first time I’ve faced such an issue. In the past, while using Manjaro KDE, I had a similar Bluetooth problem that I managed to resolve by downloading a specific file (unfortunately, I can’t recall the exact name) and placing it in a certain location. However, it’s been a while since then, and I’ve forgotten the details. I would greatly appreciate any assistance or guidance to help me resolve this recurring Bluetooth issue on KDE Neon.
