Most recent no-name cheap Chinese BT 4 USB adapters use the CSR 8510
chipset which works in Linux. For the ones you've already got, make
sure that you're not just missing a particular driver package for
your distro that includes drivers for those. If the forum thread for
the VOLANS adapter mentioned the name of the driver that was used,
then there's your starting point for getting it installed.

Of course if they're really not detected at all, so not even shown by
lsusb, then they're just dead (or your PC's USB is faulty).
