Shouldn't you be reporting this to Parallels?

It's difficult to determine if the issue is caused by the Bleak library or if it's a problem within Parallels itself. Other Bluetooth applications run without crashing the VM, so it seems specific to this use case. I will investigate further to narrow it down, and I've reported it to them as well.
