https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/117671/nrf-sniffer-not-showing-up-in-wireshark-running-on-linuxI just wanted to share this in case someone else runs into this as well. I was running into all of the same things as others where I could run the nrf_sniffer_ble.sh --extcap-interfaces and see things there but nothing would show up in wireshark.
