As some BT LE devices change their MAC address regularly, a new device is only discovered when it has been seen 5 times.
Some BTLE devices (e.g. fitness trackers) are only visible to the devices that they are paired with. In this case, the BTLE tracker won't see this device.
<p class='note warning'>
BT LE tracking requires root privileges.

For running Home Assistant as non root user we can give python3 the missing capabilities to access the bluetooth stack. Quite like setting the setuid bit (see [Stack Exchange](http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/96106/bluetooth-le-scan-as-non-root) for more information).
