Remove bluetooth devices - help needed - no remove device option?


So in EOS 6, how do I remove bluetooth devices that are not connected?

I go into Bluetooth under System settings, and there is a list of devices there with only the PAIR option on the right.

These devices are NOT connected at all, in fact they are in the drawer of my desk I was sure that previously there was a small BIN icon next to the PAIR tab so I could "forget" the device?

Any ideas?

Thanks

PS: I've tried rebooting a couple of times to no avail. And tried pairing the device (even though it is not connected) to see if I then get some sort of delete option after paring fails, but nope that didn't work either.

There's an unpair option, surely. I think most things are scrubbed then.

I would try bluetoothctl from commandline (if available) https://askubuntu.com/questions/7585...e-command-line
