I actually have two PS4 controllers, one older one and one with the light bar. Both of them are unable to connect via Bluetooth.
I don’t have hid_sony or hid_playstation loaded, I tried manually loading them and I think that works but: https://i.imgur.com/VHbtW5l.png even though they show as loaded, I still experience the same problem: https://i.imgur.com/Z42WtKr.png I only have a bunch of unnamed devices when searching for new devices to connect to/pair with, and I can’t pair with any of them. My headphones and Xbox Series X controller work perfectly.

Do you know why both hid_sony and hid_playstation are loaded? Only one is needed. The latter replaces the former, IIRC.
It loads automatically on my system once I power up the (already paired) DS4. You did pair yours with your computer, right?
I also wonder if any of the device names in your bluetooth list would be more friendly if you installed the steam-devices package.
They are both loaded because I tried manually loading just one, and then it didn’t help, so then I tried the other.
I can’t pair mine with my computer, it doesn’t even show up in the device list. The modules do not show up unless I manually load them.
I already have steam-devices installed.
I really don’t feel like I am doing anything wrong, but maybe I am.
Keep in mind it works just fine wired, so yeah maybe the Bluetooth adapter I have is just not compatible with the PS4 controller.
