[BRLTTY] Bluetooth connection problem

On one of my rpis, I have recurring connection problems. The connection can
work for hours or even days, but suddenly, the connection stops working.
Typically, the reconnection after a braille display sleep won't work. A
system reboot doesn't solve the problem.

In bluetoothctl, I get the following from info <addr>:

                Failed to connect: org.bluez.Error.Failed

To fix the problem, I have to remove the device, and then re-pair it.

Any ideas in how to fix this problem?

Thanks and regards, Lars
