Bug Description

Associate with your phone a bluetooth button (selfie button) such as this thing:-

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Yousave-Accessories-Selfie-Stick-Telescopic/dp/B00QFC6NE4

Here it is connected:-

Once connected, it's impossible to bring up the OSK in any app or scope.

Switch off the bluetooth device, or disconnect it, and the OSK magically works again.
