Bluetooth Keyboard/Mouse not working on login after upgrade to Oneric

[BarryW]

After upgrading from Natty to Oneric I rebooted to the login screen to find my bluetooth keyboard and mouse not working. I was able to rectify this by logging in via ssh and setting up my keyboard through the hidd command, I then set it up through the bluetooth-applet. However this is an unacceptable work around.

This is reported against an old version of Ubuntu and many things has changed since then. Because of that we won't fix this issue however if this behavior repeats on a modern version please fill a bug report against it and we will take it from there.
