No devices discovered on macOS Sierra

See original GitHub issue

I was stupid enough to update to the GM of Sierra and of course it broke noble. I can advertise with bleno, but when scanning for devices with noble the ‘discover’ event is never fired. Here is the debug output:

  noble addressChange a8:66:7f:3b:17:ab +0ms
  yosemite-bindings sendCBMsg: 1, {
  "kCBMsgArgName": "node-1473892881102",
  "kCBMsgArgOptions": {
    "kCBInitOptionShowPowerAlert": 0
  },
  "kCBMsgArgType": 0
} +6ms
  yosemite-bindings xpcEvent: {
  "kCBMsgId": 6,
  "kCBMsgArgs": {
    "kCBMsgArgState": 5
  }
} +5ms
  yosemite-bindings state change poweredOn +1ms
  noble stateChange poweredOn +0ms
poweredOn
  yosemite-bindings sendCBMsg: 29, {
  "kCBMsgArgOptions": {
    "kCBScanOptionAllowDuplicates": 1
  },
  "kCBMsgArgUUIDs": []
} +6ms
  noble scanStart +0ms

This is all I get, there is no further output. I don’t know much about the inner workings of noble, but it seems that not further xpc event is triggered at all. Any ideas on this?

Update: Turns out this was not a noble issue, but a corruption of BT after the update. For everyone experiencing this, deleting the following plists and restarting blued helped for me:

/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.BluetoothFileExchange.plist /var/root/Library/Preferences/blued.plist
