I'm trying to connect my Apple AirPods to my computer. I'm using the default Bluetooth app and my trusty Bluetooth USB dongle.
The device shows up on the list of discovered devices but won't connect. The UI freezes up. I tried using blueman and got the same result, only then with an accompanying error message.
PS: I have previously been able to connect the same AirPods to the same computer using the same Bluetooth USB dongle but on other Linux distributions.

Re: Connecting Apple AirPods to Mint using Bluetooth
I have the same problem. It actually worked with Mint 19.
