Anyone can help me? I wasn't able to find any solution for this. The controller works via USB-C just fine but I only have a very short cable, I borrowed the controller from a friend to try it and don't have the original cable but I was intending to play via Bluetooth anyways.

Basically, I can find the controller via pairing mode but when I try to pair it I get error:

The Setup of Dual Sense wireless Controller has failed.

After that I can see it in available wireless devices but when I try to connect to it it will immediately disconnect again, checked with bluetoothctl.

Using on-board Intel AX200 wireless controller.

I had the same issue on Nobara KDE which is the same as Fedora KDE. The issue was with bluez the bluetooth api, version 5.69 is broken. Either you can downgrade it or wait for an update. To downgrade, use the command line "sudo dnf downgrade bluez" to downgrade bluez to 5.68 which is working for me.
