Warmstor WBT-AD01 Compatibility Issue

[lsslssl]

Feedback

The Warmstor WBT-AD01 is still listed as one of the "Known working high-performance adapters" on the Home Assistant website. However, the version currently available on Amazon has been updated with an "Updated Real Bluetooth 5.1 Chip" and no longer supports Linux. This suggests it may not function the same way as the older version based on the Cambridge Silicon Radio chipset. I wanted to share this information since this adapter is one of the few "working adapters" listed that is still readily available online, such as on Amazon. This could help others avoid purchasing an incompatible version.
