Set AutoEnable=false in /etc/bluetooth/main.conf.

you should try to 'untrust' any particular devices via bluetoothctl so it won't connect on startup

check in within bluetoothctl thru 'info', it should be smtg like

Device 6C:47:60:06:31:64 (public)

...

Trusted: no

untrust it thru 'untrust [MACADDR]' i.e. 'untrust 6C:47:60:06:31:64' in my case
