IOBluetoothDevice registerForConnectNotifications callbacks not working (no callbacks) when process run as daemon/root under Sonoma (works on Ventura)

No connection notifications callback for Bluetooth devices are called on Sonoma if process is run as daemon/system, works on Ventura. Seems to be some changes in TCC that now requires kTCCServiceBluetoothAlways in system TCC.db - but how to grant this?

Other calls on IOBluetoothDevice fails probably for the same reason.

Running as launch agent works as expected on both Sonoma and Ventura.

Code used os_log_t logHandle = 0;

@interface BluetoothConnection : NSObject { } @end

@implementation BluetoothConnection

-(id)init { self = [super init]; if (self) { IOBluetoothUserNotification* notification = [IOBluetoothDevice registerForConnectNotifications:self selector:@selector(deviceIsConnected:fromDevice:)]; if (notification == nil) { os_log_debug(logHandle, "registerForConnectNotifications failed"); } else { os_log_debug(logHandle, "registerForConnectNotifications %{public}@", notification); } } return self; }

-(void)deviceDidDisconnect:(IOBluetoothUserNotification*)notification fromDevice:(IOBluetoothDevice*)device { os_log_debug(logHandle, "%{public}@ (%{public}@) disconnected", [device name], [device addressString]); }

-(void)deviceIsConnected:(IOBluetoothUserNotification*)notification fromDevice:(IOBluetoothDevice*)device { os_log_debug(logHandle, "%{public}@ (%{public}@) connected (%d, %d)", [device name], [device addressString], device.deviceClassMajor, device.deviceClassMinor); [device registerForDisconnectNotification:self selector:@selector(deviceDidDisconnect:fromDevice:)]; } @end

int main(int argc, const char * argv[]) { @autoreleasepool { logHandle = os_log_create("SPX”, “BT”); BluetoothConnection *bluetoothConnection = [[BluetoothConnection alloc] init]; [[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] run]; } return 0; }
