Same problem here.

I am using Linux Mint 21 too.

In my case running lsusb && refkill show that usb bluetooth adapter is attatched and ready.

~$ lsusb && rfkill

But unfortunately, pulseaudio daemon stop and gets into restarting-stopping loop.

I can confirm that this adapter works on Linux Mint 20.3 and Windows.

@fran6120: It looks like you're reporting an issue with pulseaudio in Linux Mint 21. This has nothing to do with @princessclocky's problem that no devices show up when searching and blueman is not the correct project to address (either Linux Mint or pulseaudio).
