var startBluetoothFlow by remember { mutableStateOf(false) }
    LaunchedEffect(key1 = true) {
        if (!host.bleManager.isReadyForScanning) {
            startBluetoothFlow = true
        }
    }

    if (startBluetoothFlow) {
        BluetoothController(
            permissionState = permissionState,
            bluetooth = host.bleManager,
            navHostController = navController,
        )
    }

The problem is that BluetoothController is getting evaluated multiple times

once you turn the flag to

true

, it will remain

true

and trigger your

if

block at each composition. You could wrap your

if

block in a

LaunchedEffect

with

key

startBluetothFlow

or maybe just move this block into the existing

LaunchedEffect

well, i can’t move the block inside LaunchedEffect, because BluetoothController is a composable. I think my issue was with using SideEffect in the BluetoothController to trigger things. I switched to using LaunchedEffect in there so that things only fire a single time.
