Bluetooth conf not being recognized

This is my bluetooth.conf -

# Configuration file for Laptop Mode Tools module bluetooth.

# For more information, consult the laptop-mode.conf(8) manual page.

###############################################################################
# Bluetooth settings
# ------------------
#
#__COMMENT If you enable this module, laptop mode tools will enable/disable bluetooth
#__COMMENT depending on the power status of your laptop. Bluetooth uses a considerable
#__COMMENT amount of power (comparable to wireless networking), and disabling it is
#__COMMENT therefore a good idea when you are looking to improve your battery life.

###############################################################################

# Enable debug mode for this module
# Set to 1 if you want to debug this module
DEBUG=0

# Control bluetooth?
CONTROL_BLUETOOTH=0

# Enable bluetooth on battery
BATT_ENABLE_BLUETOOTH=1

# Enable bluetooth on AC
AC_ENABLE_BLUETOOTH=1

# Bluetooth interfaces to enable/disable
BLUETOOTH_INTERFACES="hci0"

As is evident, bluetooth control is disabled.

But when my laptop is using laptop-mode-tools and is below a certain threshold (I think 50%), it keeps disconnecting my bluetooth devices. I checked that this is indeed because of laptop-mode-tools by disabling it and everything worked perfectly.

It would depend on multiple factors. Many hardware these days, embed the bluetooth and wifi onto a single chip. In such cases, applying power savings to your wifi could affect your bt device too. But all depends on the hardware.

Can you please investigate and provide:

• system logs when bt is behaving erratic
• Laptop Mode Tools logs, preferably in verbose mode.
• Laptop Mode Tools version, Distribution, Linux Kernel version

/me needs to read up on bug templates for Github.
