Every time I wake up PC from sleep I have to go to bluetooth settings -> select device -> enable connection to get sound on bluetooth speakers (Anker Soundcore). Bluetooth came with MBO and drivers were working out of the box after PopOS install.
I hope there is a command I can use instead of clicking in the GUI. Anyone know a command I could use?
[SOLUTION]
Using this command (with bluetooth speaker MAC address):
bluetoothctl connect A4:77:58:0A:DF:F1
[SOLUTION]
Bonus question: I was thinking I could map that command to a keyboard shortcut (like CTRL+ALT+B). What is the best way (or app) to accomplish this? I believe I could google this part quickly, but happy to hear suggestions anyway
[SOLUTION]
It's possible with PopOS: Settings -> Keyboard -> Keaboard Shortcuts -> Custom Shortcuts

Please don’t crucify me but is there a way to do this on windows ? I just have a handheld gaming console that came with windows and it’s setup just the way I want but would be nice if I can also connect to Bluetooth using command line so that I can map it to playnite and have it automatically connect to my headphones when launching a game. I did a lot of research and tried some stuff like “Bluetooth command line tools” which worked a bit but somehow caused a lot of instability and caused crashes so had to stop using it.
Probably, but this is not the place to ask if you want answers. This forum is for Linux discussion, not Windows, and while I could get this set up in Linux for you, I wouldn't even know where to start with Windows, as I haven't used it in a decade. You'll see a lot of the same with experienced Linux users here. Most of us will not be able to help you. I recommend you ask in a Windows forum instead, as you'll have a much greater chance of finding someone knowledgeable to help. Maybe there's a forum for Windows command line (or Powershell? I don't know what they're calling it these days).
Understood. Will do that. Thanks.
