I was using this config and wanted to add BLE as well - flashed over serial and everything looked good.
When I went to OTA I got the error Error receiving acknowledge binary size: timed out.
I did some digging, and found out that it's timing out during the upload.
SO - to fix it, comment out BLE and add the SDKConfig value CONFIG_ESP_TASK_WDT_TIMEOUT_S: "10".
Push this OTA to increase the timeout, then after that is successful, uncomment the BLE stuff and it will OTA without error.

I just did this a few minutes ago, and so far everything is working and looks good (I did reassemble the device and put it on mains so power wasn't an issue).

Cheers!

New to ESPHome (hace used Tasmota on this switch)..... How add/activate BLE sensors?

@balvant813 when I tried a few months ago, this version of the ESP32 didn't support any of the new BLE code. No idea if it can work now, but I haven't tried it since.
