Corne MacOS Connectivity Issue

Hello,

I have trouble connecting my Aurora Corne split kb (wireless) to my MacBook Pro 2021 M1 (OS X version 13.4) -- this is a work laptop, so re-installing the OS is not an option. Other Bluetooth devices work as expected. I suspect it has to do with Mac's Bluetooth or the firmware. It worked for a few minutes, but then it stopped working, and I tried flashing the firmware again, renaming the keyboard, etc. but think it has just gotten worse.

I have flashed the ZMK firmware here.

I have another laptop that runs on Ubuntu, which seems to be able to connect to the wireless kbd. When I look for Bluetooth devices with Bluez, it seems there are multiple keyboards/different MAC addresses, idk.

I have tried all the solutions I can find for making the MacBook "forget" all previous connections/Bluetooth devices, including deleting files, resetting the service, etc.

Has anyone been through a similar situation, or could give any advice? Thanks
