Question Bluetooth Stick won't work if plugged in on startup

Hello,
I bought a Bluetooth stick to use my earphones on my PC. If I leave it plugged in while booting up, it appears normally for a short time and then has a problem, the error message is "This device was stopped because it reported errors. (Code 43)". The stick works again after I uninstalled it or left it unplugged when booting up. Just plugging it out and in doesn't help.
What can I do?

Bluetooth stick
What is the make and model of this Bluetooth stick?

What is the make and model of your motherboard? BIOS version for said motherboard? What OS are you on? Windows 10 or 11?
It's a TP-Link UB500.

I have a Asrock ASRock B450M Pro4 with Bios version 3.90. I'm running Windows 11 Pro for Workstations.
