Having updated bluez from 5.50.1-2, systemd is no longer able to start bluetoothd. I believe this to be connected
to the movement of the binary to /usr/libexec/.

i had the same Error, but i noticed that in /etc/systemd/system is an bluetooth.service as well.
I probably edited the bluetooth.service a long time ago an that has overridden the installed
bluetooth.service. maybe that's the cause of your error too, because the current package of bullseye
has the correct path in the service.

Sorry for misreporting, I forgot I had a systemd override.
Thank you for your work,
