Bluetooth Headset locks other BT devices.

[Timur I. Davletshin]

Binary package hint: gnome-bluetooth

I've got clean installation of Karmic Koala. My BT devices (Motorola H350 old headset and Genius Traveler 915BT mouse and cell phone) they work well. But when I start using bt headset my other bt devices became disconnected for some reason. After I finish using headset bt dongle became available again. I get no problems using mouse and phone in the same time but bt headset kills other connections.

Here you can see how mouse connects (two virtual devices in one) then headset connects (mouse connection will be droped) and mouse reconnects automatically in a few seconds.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the stable release - Oneiric Ocelot. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed. You can find out more about it at http://www.ubuntu.com/download . Thanks again and we appreciate your help.
