Qualcom Bluetooth firmware

Bluetooth has worked on this box at slow speed and frankly wasn't worth the effort. Now I think I know why. From 'lsusb' Code:lsusb |grep -i Bluetooth
Bus 001 Device 015: ID 0cf3:3004 Qualcomm Atheros Communications AR3012 Bluetooth 4.0And dmesg Code:[ 8.182976] usb 2-3: new high-speed USB device number 4 using xhci_hcd

[ 8.658577] usbcore: registered new interface driver btusb
[ 8.661930] usbcore: registered new interface driver ath3k
[ 8.662565] Bluetooth: hci0: don't support firmware rome 0x1020200That AR3012 should be on usb-3.0,IIRC and not usb-2.0. It should be doing usb-4.0, and not dawdling along. My versions are kernel-firmware-20210208_b79d239-noarch-1, and kernel-generic 5.10.15 from the 2021-02-11 iso.
Is this a kernel issue?
