Bug Description

When bluetooth gets enabled by the user we should try to connect all devices we're currently paired with and which are marked as trusted. This will help to improve the user experience that the user will get his configured devices connected right away.

Android does this similar.

Hi all,

I reproduced this bug, find below all the info:

Product: bq Aquaris E4.5
FW version: RC 201 ( Bluez5)
HW version: MP

Bug's timeline:

9.37 Android device "xxxxxxxxc" paired and checkbox for Auto connect when detected marked.

9.38 With the Android device(xxxxxxxxc) we select Aquaris E4.5 and both appears as connected and synced.

9.40 Aquaris E4.5 bluetooth is turned off and then turned on to see if it connects automatically with the Android device paired before.

9.40 --> 10.20 Android device (xxxxxxxxc) still appears as disconnected. Automatic connection seems to be not working.

Additional Info: Logs attached were gathered following the steps in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingBluetooth
