bluepy.btle.BTLEManagementError: Management not available (permissions problem?) #19

Seeing these issues recently in the logs and it seems like the status cannot be captured; Google Assistant also mentions it cannot communicate although the curtain does work

So I was looking at this again and tried running my HA docker instance with --privileged enabled and that resolved this issue and the battery reading as well, but obviously this is not the most secure option.

Any idea if we can get around this by passing in the bluetooth device or something else?
