I know almost nothing about BT, I just follow examples.

I looked at this and repeated the search on
    debian stretch 9.11.0 Broadcom Corp. BCM43142A0 Bluetooth 4.0
but I took out your debian stretch 9.11.0 and added firmware, to leave just
    Broadcom Corp. BCM43142A0 Bluetooth 4.0 firmware
because I'm not sure how relevant the kernel version is for firmware.

The sixth hit was
    https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=48613

It claims to be a solution, though it's difficult to ascertain that
because there's no summary of the correct commands in the correct
order as the correct user: root.

I'm surprised Knoppix didn't get it to work. I *thought* their
distributions were inclusive (unlike Debian's), so that a larger
variety of hardware would be supported. But it's probably over a
decade since I used one.
