I finally found the cause of this problem. It was related to kdeconnect! In the devices kcm of kdeconnect, your own PC is also listed as one of the available devices and it is possible to pair with it! It does not make sense but in my case my laptop was paired with itself and this was the source of the problem. Unpairing solved the problem! -- Cheers!
