Bluetooth pervents iMac 27" (2019) and MacBook Pro 13 (Intel 2019) from sleeping

After updating both my computers to macOS Monterey, the system does not go to sleep when any bluetooth device is connected, including Apple ones (Keyboard/Magic Mouse 2)


pmset -g in Terminal shows that bluetoothd prevents the system from sleeping.

Does anyone else has this issue?

Has anybody found a fix/workaround?

Same Problem here on a Mac Mini 2018 with clean install and no other software installed. This is a problem within the 12.2 OS and is also causing many laptops to lose battery charge during the night if they have bluetooth mouse or other things

connected.


The workaround is to turn off bluetooth or turn off your mouse and Keyboard and use wired devices. No need to waste a lot of time troubleshooting.
