Can Bluetooth be used in Proxmox (passed to a VM or LXC)

the pcie and usb device are the only things you can pass through. if it doesnt work, its most likely an issue within homeassistant.
have you checked the logs/console there?

i am using some realtek based usb bluetooth for homeassistant.
my intel card is reserved for windows 11 vm, where it works perfectly fine.
 
I finally got the PCIe card that I ordered - the first order shipped wrong card. I now have the INTEL AX210 in my system with proxmox installed and it is seen inside HomeAssistant (once setting up IOMMU and passing through the PCI (WiFi) and USB 8087:0032 to the HA instance.

Still think something is wrong - as I only see this:

Hi, sorry for the intrusion in the thread however I also have a BT issue in proxmox but It is sort of working
but as the title of the thread is: "Can Bluetooth be used in Proxmox (passed to a VM or LXC)" I figured it would be ok.

If not then I can start a new thread :D

The issue is that it does work as I have both the USB side:
001 Device 004: ID 0e8d:c616 MediaTek Inc. Wireless_Device mapped to: (USB Device) usb0 in the VM

As well as the:
IOMMU Group 23 5c:00.0 Network controller [0280]: MEDIATEK Corp. MT7922 802.11ax PCI Express Wireless Network Adapter [14c3:0616]
mapped to: (PCI Device pcihost0)

This all works fine the issue is however the moment I want to do more then just playing back the Audio.
All kinds of issues occur.

I theorize that this is because I am NOT forwarding the entire Root Hub from the motherboard.
and and that thus there is an issue with the channeling of multiple devices

Does any body here have any ideas on that?
 
I am building a new HA (HomeAssistant instance as a VM under Proxmox). The new VM box has the very same WiFi/BT card that the existing ThinClient is using. A PCIe card and I am getting WiFi in BOTH systems - but the new VM does not see the Bluetooth. Again, they are both on the same card. Proxmox is setup and is passing the PCIe into the HA (x86_64) installation. WiFi is working and I am able to connect to my AP and get an IP From both systems.
Done a little research - and it appears that Bluetooth 'is' there under Proxmox. From the SHELL - I am seeing this:



From what I can gather - it is there after installing 'bluetooth' and 'bluez' -- but no idea how to pass it into the HomeAssistant VM. I was able to pass the WiFi into the HA VM by adding the PCIe Adapter

The Bluetooth is on the same card as the WiFi...it is a PCIe card with antennas on the outside of the machine.
Looking at your pic list prob not. i hope you figure it out :)
