AccessorySetupKit - Bluetooth peripheral connects but doesn't start SMP Pairing procedure

Previously working! Now Broken. I developed a test application to establish a connection with a BLE peripheral. The application successfully connected to the peripheral, but it did not establish SMP Pairing procedure.

Previously, I was able to successfully pair with the devices during the Beta phase. However, currently, I am not receiving the OS prompt to grant Bluetooth permissions. I understand that this may be a newly introduced feature in the recent releases.

Could you please provide guidance on whether there is a specific flag that needs to be enabled or added elsewhere, or if this is a bug with the ASK?

PLEASE HELP!!!
