When I click on the switch like button in Settings it doesn't turn on, even though the button looks like it is. It still says 'Bluetooth Turned Off' below. I have turned on my earbuds to see if they would be able to connect but nothing happens.
Tried sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade but that didn't work.

I tried running sudo dmesg and I do get some errors:
[ 24.237131] Bluetooth: hci0: BCM: firmware Patch file not found, tried:
[ 24.237166] Bluetooth: hci0: BCM: 'brcm/BCM43142A0-0930-0225.hcd'
[ 24.237188] Bluetooth: hci0: BCM: 'brcm/BCM-0930-0225.hcd'
[ 26.252958] Bluetooth: hci0: command 0x1003 tx timeout
[ 26.252959] Bluetooth: hci0: Opcode 0x1003 failed: -110
So it seems like I'm missing some firmware. I'm not sure where I'm supposed to get it from.
When I ran bluetoothctl then try power on & scan on they both came back with "No default controller available"
