Bug Description
Recently the beacon_eddystone_url test has started failing on some linux 22.04 hwe kernel environments.
Example: https://certification.canonical.com/hardware/202302-31259/submission/472810/
This test has passed several times in the past and what is weird is that seems that the backend/linux.py hasn't been modified in 5 years.
The error is due to due to a breaking change in Python's C API for Python 3.10 (which I'm assuming was always used) as pointed in this issue: pybluez/pybluez#426
The patch seems that was never released as last released version was 0.23 in 2019 and the fix was published on 2022. If this is in fact the issue, maybe we would need to install from source.
Cert-blocker Test Case
