[BRLTTY] Orbit 40

[kperry at blinksoft.com]

I am back just to give you good news.  First the bad news.  I killed a PI.
I have never done that before but for some reason one of my new PI 4's no
longer connects to Wi-Fi it might not be fully dead but I don't have time to
work on it from the command line without ssh until after my presentation.
With that said after killing the PI I moved to my Raspberry PI 400 and set
it up with the new build of brltty and it connected to the Orbit Reader 40
with Bluetooth.  The secret was. I needed to first run pair under
bluetoothctl. Then exit.  Then I rebooted.  After that I ran bluetoothctl
again and it said something about registering the device.  Finally I ran
run-brltty and it connected.    If I don't do it in that order I could not
get it to work.

>Do I need to unpair it or will Brltty be able to handle it when its paired?

It needs to be paired.

>Right now it is still not connecting with it paired

Time to have a look at a log. This time, use: -ldebug,bt -L/path/to/logfle
