What to do if bluetooth does not work on Linux Mint?

In short, not so long ago I wanted to connect bluetooth headphones, but there were problems, to the point that the system seems to see, but it seems that it does not see the adapter. blueman and blueberry don't see it that way.
OS: Linux Mint 19.2 Tina x86_64
Host: HP Laptop 15-bw0xx

output of systemctl status bluetooth.service

"Oct 06 19:57:56 xanos-laptop bluetoothd[4191]: No Bluetooth address for index 0" on this line you can understand that the problem is with the bluetooth address (as I understand it, on the bus). What to do next - I do not know.
sudo hcitool scan output
Device is not available: No such device

"sudo lsusb | grep Bluetooth" generally has an empty output

PS Literally a month ago everything worked, no operations were performed before and after with bluetooth

Can't init device hci0: Cannot assign requested address (99)
I've been struggling with this for a day, but the result is the same
