Can't get Bluetooth LE to promiscuous mode

I'm using a Nordic nrf52840 based dongle to sniff the connection to a gamepad. When I bring up connect options, it shows dashes in the promiscuous column, which I cannot change. I am running:

npcap 1.80
JLink V7.94i
nrfutil 7.13.0
Wireshark 4.4.2 (v4.4.2-0-g9947b17309f4).

I have re-installed everything multiple times. Advertising packets come through just fine, but no others. I can run a game, which responds to the gamepad.

Any suggestions of where to look would be appreciated.

Thanks for the suggestion. I did not see any, but I did post the question there. Certainly their shim loaded into the dongle is one of the usual suspects.
