It now works!
Ultimately I've found this to be a driver-related issue. If you've tried everything else try this:
Figure out whose Bluetooth hardware you are using. In my case I'm using Intel-based hardware.
Go to their website and download/install the latest drivers available. In my case the latest drivers did not fix the problem. I actually had to use the older Bluetooth drivers installer.
- I downloaded and installed the Intel Driver Update Utility
- Once the utility is open click Scan
Try the Latest drivers and if that doesn't fix it, try the Older drivers
As noted above I ended up having to use the Older drivers tab as seen in the image.
Everything works great now!
