This is a command-line that is useful for manually exercising the org.bluez DBus activiation. It might reproduce the timeout or otherwise give useful clues. Command should be all on one line (ignore Launchpad line wrapping):

dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.bluez / org.freedesktop.DBus.ObjectManager.GetManagedObjects

I won't reproduce the entire output here but this is the initial part when a BT hci device is available:
