Need android.permission.BLUETOOTH_SCAN

On certain devices, Tasker will not be able to execute the "Net" > "Bluetooth Info"> "Scan Devices" action because it needs android.permission.BLUETOOTH_SCAN permission.

I have granted every single permission to Tasker. This effects Galaxy S20 FE with Android 13, but not Pixel 8 Pro with Android 14.

I may be able to grant with ADB, but Tasker is not properly requesting this permission or something else is wrong, as I am able to run Bluetooth scan from my own app with proper permissions on the same device. Maybe it also needs BLUETOOTH_ADMIN?

Here are the permissions my own app uses:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_CONNECT" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_SCAN" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH_ADMIN" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE" />
