All devices show as connected in applet, even if not present

[Matthew Woerly]

Binary package hint: gnome-bluetooth

My bluetooth applet shows all of the devices I add, and they connect when I turn them on. But if they are on the list, they always show up as connected, even when they aren't present. Telling one to disconnect does so, but it still shows up as connected in the applet.
