Describe the bug
When using this test application: ble-chat.zip
and running it on Mac with "cargo run -- peripheral" and on Linux Debian with "cargo run -- central", I get this output on Linux:
[2025-06-26T17:38:08Z INFO ble_chat::central] Starting BLE Chat Central, looking for device: 'BLE_Chat_Device'
[2025-06-26T17:38:08Z INFO ble_chat::central] ✅ Using adapter: hci0 (usb:v1D6Bp0246d0552)

Error: Connection failed: Timeout waiting for reply
I have to connect manually first to the peripheral with this command:
sudo hcitool lecc 14:98:77:76:2C:E8
and then the Rust program can connect to it as well.
Also after starting the Rust program a few times, sometimes I get this message:
Error: Bluetooth operation failed: Failed to register advertisement
This persists then for any subsequent start, until I restart the bluetooth service:
sudo systemctl restart bluetooth
Then the Rust program works again.
Expected behavior
I expect that I don't need to use the hcitool program or restart the bluetooth service.
Actual behavior
I need to use the hcitool program and sometimes restart the bluetooth service.
