Realtek adapter rtl8852be strange pairing behavor.

Realtek rtl8852be cards misbehave while paring on select devices. (the only one …I can report is the switch pro controller.) It never correctly sets the device up, however maintains some level of a connection as the device doesn't shut off if using the connect option instead of pairing. The issue doesn't exist in windows, meaning it's either a bug with bluez, or a bug with the wireless side of the driver. (As it is unfortunately, a combo card.) Using a separate usb bluetooth adapter fixes the issue related to the switch pro controller. ### System Arch Linux 6.7.5.zen1-1 bluez and bluez utils version 5.72-2

5.75, 5.76 : Switch pro controller and joycons won't pair / connect properly on rtl8852ce

Switch pro controllers and joycons will not pair correctly on rtl8852ce. If you …do the pairing process, the device will be shown as paired, but will disconnect shortly after. After trying to reconnect to it, this error is returned : Failed to connect: org.bluez.Error.Failed br-connection-create-socket If there is a nintendo switch powered on nearby in which the controller was previously paired, pressing any button on the controller will just make the controller reconnect to the switch. The controller still shows up as paired in bluetoothctl and in bluedevil. Connecting without pairing the device will keep it connected, but it will be unusable and the LEDs on the pro controller / joycon will be stuck in the pairing animation.
