Cubox-i4pro - cannot turn on Bluetooth

Hi,

I picked up my old cubox-i4pro and upgraded it to Debian 11.
I wanted to play with Bluetooth but I cannot manage to turn it on?
I followed the instructions here:
https://solidrun.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/developer/pages/197493654/CuBox-i+Quick+Start+Guide#Bluetooth

It fails here:

sudo hciconfig hci0 up
Can’t get device info: No such device

Any suggestion?

Here are the system details

Replying to my own topic.

A fresh install of the standard debian 11 image solved the problem
