Bluetooth dongle not detected by Bluetooth integration

The problem

After a forced shutdown caused by a power blackout, my Home Assistant installation no longer detects the Bluetooth dongle I'm using (ASUS_USB-BT500). The device appears in the hardware list in Settings -> System -> Hardware -> All hardware:

Also, it is detected by rfkill list:

0: hci0: bluetooth
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: wlan
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
4: hci1: bluetooth
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no

but not by bluetoothctl list:

Controller D8:3A:DD:BB:51:33 homeassistant [default]

When I try to add a new entry for Bluetooh, I get:

No unconfigured Bluetooth adapters found. There are 0 ignored adapters.

I had a similar issue some time ago, but it was fixed by removing and readding the dongle in a different USB port, but this time this does not fix the issue. I also tried a reboot, but still no success.

Hmm, after a few more unplugs and replugs, the dongle was finally detected and appeared as hci2.
