See the Related Article linked above for the recommended steps.

The NVRAM reset step is part of what is recommended by Apple, and yes, does clear data stored there.

A separate Bluetooth reset step is also recommended.

With respect to nvram:

"Settings that can be stored in NVRAM include sound volume, display

resolution, startup-disk selection, time zone, and recent kernel

panic information. The settings stored in NVRAM depend on your Mac and

the devices that you're using with your Mac."
